I don't know much about this kid, but it seems like a great story.

He worked as a manager for a varsity basketball team in Rochester, NY. On the last game of the season, in his senior year, the coach added his name to the roster, so he could suit up. The team was secure enough in the game for the coach to be able to put Jason on the court for the last four minutes of the game.
