Quote: | Grizzlies players buy new car for team attendant after his was stolen
It's the time of the year for giving and members of the Grizzlies took the season to heart in 2014, helping to replace an intern's vehicle after it was stolen.
In an Instagram post by guard Courtney Lee, Memphis players could be seen giving the intern, Brandon, a car with a big red bow on it.
Brandon was more than appreciative and the crowd stood around giving each other hugs.
The Grizzlies told Sporting News that the initiative was completely player-motivated.
Neat to see the camaraderie within the team, especially around the holidays. |

Ha. Even in that event, he got a brand new version of it!
Well, unless they stole his Maserati and got him a Nissan as a replacement. |
