$1 million fine? Sad story, but the kids seem genuinely happy about the visit. And it makes me chuckle a bit that one of the boys knows Wilson Chandler primarily as Kyle Lowry's friend.
Thats what i like to see and hear. You don't need the nba to tell you when to visit the hospital. kyle lowry did this on his own time. thats what you call a true ball player.

Great job Lowry! Athletes are under-appreciated for this stuff! My older brother, by 18 months, was diagnosed with cancer about 10 years, Chris burk and Luke Scott were in the minors at the time and they came and visited with us for about an hour. Kenny Thomas gave me and him a pair of used shoes signed and signed a ball for us! Best one of all though, entire 2000 team signed basketball, and the Comets also signed a ball for him. What was really cool is that they went out of their way to do things for my entire family, not just my brother! Which would have been enough!
Man, Kyle is looking very fit.I mean he looks like he is in really good shape! By far the best of his career.
Thanks for the link. Very tragic and sad, to say the least. Definitely puts things in perspective. Lowry is da man. Glad Morey matched Cleveland's offer sheet.
Life can be so freakin' hard. People like Kyle and Wilson Chandler show us the other side of life. The side that makes it worth living.
jesus christ what a sad story. im amazed those kids can even smile at all. it said they were driving from fort stockton which is a long single lane road where you're a few feet from oncoming traffic.
To me that makes him an even more valuable asset to our team. You cant buy character or class! Great work Kyle
Good to see Kyle Lowry recruiting free agents (even tho he's restricted). But all jokes aside, good to see Kyle giving back to the community and giving the kids something to smile about. Very sad story.. hate to hear stories like this.
What an awful story It sure was nice of Kyle and Wilson to go see those kids, but that's just an unbelievable tragedy.
Yes it is EXTREMELY sad. The parents that were killed were my younger brother's best friend's, Dad's, girlfriend's daughter and husband (if you can follow that). I've never met them and I'm not sure my brother has either. But, obviously his best friend was pretty close with them. I can't imagine what the kids and rest of the family are going through. Additionally, there was no alcohol involved. I'm not sure if the driver of the other vehicle was texting, fell asleep or what.
