Pistons' Langston Galloway thinking of others on his return to Louisiana

New Orleans — Birthdays typically are a time to receive gifts and appreciation. Pistons guard Langston Galloway sees it a little differently.

It’s a time to give — and give back.

As Galloway celebrated his 28th birthday on Monday, the same day the Pistons were set to play the New Orleans Pelicans, the circumstances aligned for him to make it a special day for himself and others.

Galloway, a native of Baton Rouge, was expecting about 50 family members from his hometown, but he also invited a big group of high school students from some groups that he’s involved with to watch the game, as well.
