Nick Young Hosts Black History Month Celebration For Underpriviliged Youth

For a few years now, Los Angeles Lakers guard Nick Young has been dedicated to making his contribution to Black History Month. This year, Young teamed up with the Lakers Youth Foundation and AEG/Staples Center to host two inner city youth non-profit organizations (The Brotherhood Crusade and Chain Reaction) for a VIP Lakers game experience, with an impact that goes far beyond the basketball court.

From the heaps of catered food, to the giftbags, giveaways and special guests, it was a once in a lifetime experience focused on kids in underserved areas, many of which were in the foster care system.
