Wow! I don't know how good this team was but they might have benefited from his shooting ability had he been on the team all along.

Sure, it's heartwarming, until you begin to wonder why the hell this kid wasn't on the team in the first place!

Well his team played again yesterday and he was back in dress clothes....

I don't think the opponents were playing defense...I'm certainly not diminishing the great story...I wondered the same thing (why wasn't he playing all along) but when you look closely they were letting him shoot.

Either way it's a great story!

it's a wonderful story, but the follow-up on it is that he's back to being "team manager" of the squad. WTF, he just put up 20 in 4 minutes. Why not let the boy play?
