A basketball-loving teen fearing a knock on his door was his neighbors complaining he was making too much noise while shooting at a tree was stunned when they surprised him with a new hoop. The kind-hearted surprise not only went viral but also received support from the likes of NBA star Lebron James, who described the gesture as "pure and beautiful" on social media. For months, Ian Ray and his neighbors in Edmonton, Canada, watched Anthony Moubike, aged 14, make do with shooting at a tree and dribbling around on his drive and the nearby sidewalk. But one day, Ian thought to himself that someone nearby must be able to help Anthony out, so he posted a message in their local Facebook Group, Northside Hub (Edmonton), to ask if anyone had a net. Sure enough, offers came flying in, with people asking Ian if they could also donate cash to help Anthony out with his basketball prospects. With the wheels in motion, a manager at a local tire store then messaged to donate the entire net himself, and so Ian collected the net and put the other donations, $750, into a sports store gift card. Ian then arrived at Anthony's home, where he knocked on the door and the teen made his way outside. Initially, Anthony admitted he feared his basketball playing on the street and against trees would be cause for complaint, but then Ian revealed the hoop and presented the teenager with a gift card.

This reminds me of when I was a kid, looking for a safe place to play basketball with my friends. Seton Hall University had a sports "dome" facility strictly for their students, but we discovered that they would allow neighborhood kids to use the court when it wasn't busy. It kept us safe and off the street. They didn't have to let us in, but that made a big difference for me and a few of my friends. I will never forget that token of kindness.

It could also be interpreted as him being too self-conscious, and a people pleaser. You see this a lot with young men who do not have a Father. Either way, this kind of support would hopefully sort out any self-esteem issues, and reinforce good behavior that people notice. The boy inspires something in others, just by being himself, that is amazing.

@@LaRoseDetails I don’t believe Stormrider’s comment are negative at all. The young man was shown an act of compassion by a neighbor and his community. A man and a community of people in which I assume, do not all look look like him, and yet they still rallied to act together in kindness. The power of community is the main takeaway here. The gifts the young boy’s community gave him just may fuel his dream to become a professional athlete, but it will also give him something to remain passionate and focused and possibly help derail him from making life altering bad decisions, running with the wrong crowd, etc. He may indeed make it to play professionally, but if he doesn’t, he will learn important life skills through the game of basketball, teamwork, cohesiveness, interdependence. He may may not make it to the pros, but his love of the game and balling skills just may help him acquire a college degree on either partial or full athletic scholarship. And as an adult basketball could be an outlet of exercise and recreation, many men (former high school or collegiate ballers) continue to hone their athleticism and competitive drive through pick up games after work or on the weekend. Lastly, if he becomes a father, he could share his love of the game with his children. I sincerely hope that the young boy in the video becomes a man and professional baller. But if he doesn’t, I’m sure that he will forever be impacted by the community of people who cared enough for him and encouraged him through a communal act of kindness.

Sessoms ran up to Cannon and put the gun to his head before running back into his own home. Cannon Hinnant, the 5-year-old boy who was shot to death outside his father’s home in Wilson, North Carolina last weekend has been laid to rest. Witnesses told police that Cannon Hinnant was riding a bike when his father’s neighbor walked up to him and shot him in the head in front of his two sisters, ages 8 and 7. Police said 25-year-old Darius Nathaniel Sessoms was arrested Monday. He’s charged with first-degree murder and is being held without bond.

That’s called community right there. That’s how you encourage a young man. It shows that his work ethic has been noticed. Takes a special man to help lift up the next generation also.

@@JSchaffer214 when he said "blessing everybody" he's talking about the kid growing up making $$$ and giving gifts back to the people.

@@JSchaffer214 well maybe most don't get a simple act of kindness displayed in the video, if he makes it I bet he will remember this for the rest of his life. I grew up in LA in the 90's, you had a high probablity of being shot in the park due to gang crossfire. We would never get any type of support from any one, even the gangs stole our stuff, cops thought we were gangs, and all kinds of discriminatory behavior
