Lakers News: Las Vegas Native Stephen Zimmerman Reflects On Recent Shooting

Last Sunday a man opened fire at the Route 91 Music Festival in Las Vegas, killing 58 people, injuring hundreds of others and affecting people all throughout the country in what is the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history.

Since the shooting people from all places have come together to help out the victims and their families, whether it be by donating money or blood, etc.

The Los Angeles Lakers and the Sacramento Kings are set to play a preseason game in Las Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena on Sunday night. The two organizations have banded together to make the game contribute towards a greater cause, as they announced that in conjunction with the T-Mobile Arena, AEG and MGM Resorts International, all the proceeds from Sunday’s game will be donated directly to benefit victims, their families and first responders through the MGM Resorts Foundation.
