Charity begins at home in New Zealand for OKC Thunder big man Steven Adams

OKC Thunder center Steven Adams held his free basketball camps in his native New Zealand this week. The big Kiwi recognizes how important his role is his own country as he’s the main NBA star the children of New Zealand have as their connection to loving basketball and the NBA.

The OKC Thunder big man has never disappointed in this regard taking that role very seriously. Still, there is something extremely genuine about Adams which resonates in whatever country he appears.

Often referred to as a gentle giant that accolade was never more evident than his interaction with Ruben in the Whangarei District, New Zealand basketball camp Adams was holding.
