In a statement, Gores, a Flint native, praised the NBPA Foundation and NBA players from around the country for investing in Flint and its children. “We are expanding the program and bringing more people together because kids in Flint deserve our support more than ever,” said Gores. “I’m proud of the way the NBA and players throughout the league continue to step up.
