    If you want to help the Banners, I’m dropping a link to the Tender Bridge Foundation 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼. This hockey team has survived a lot of tough stuff over 23 years — I believe they’ll get through this, but community investment undoubtedly helps.

    Dwight Howard said his 6-year-old son David has asked him this year, after his mother died, why life is so hard. Having David here in the bubble to watch the WCF has meant a lot. “I think it will mean the world to him. He’ll never forget this moment and neither will I.”
