Former New York Knicks, New Jersey Nets PG Stephon Marbury donating 10 million masks

Remember Stephon Marbury? What New York hoops fan could forget the Coney Island native who played for the New Jersey Nets and New York Knicks?

Following his NBA career, Marbury became a giant playing in the Chinese Basketball Association. Now that he sees his hometown being ravaged by coronavirus, Marbury is stepping up to help the doctors and nurses on the frontlines.

According to Marc Berman of the New York Post, Marbury is working with a mask supplier in China to send 10 million masks to New York.

“At the end of the day, I am from Brooklyn,” Marbury said.
