Nets on MLK Day: Understanding the legacy by helping the little ones

On Martin Luther King Day, Sean Kilpatrick and Trevor Booker spent time building and painting bookshelves and benches for the Brownsville Ascend Lower School in Brooklyn New York.

While the NBA and Nets representatives spoke on a higher plane of the significance of King’s legacy, the two Nets spoke of what it was like to do what they did, even if their contributions were small.

“MLK day is a day for giving back. We decided to represent, help others and being able to help others in our community, especially with those guys supporting us,” Kilpatrick said of Monday.
