ORLANDO – As he was packing food into a bag that will help feed hungry children during weekends away from school, Orlando Magic center Khem Birch was struck by his surroundings on Tuesday at the Amway Center.
In an assembly line not too far away from the 6-foot-9 Birch was Magic CEO Alex Martins, and not too far from there, Magic President of Basketball Operations Jeff Weltman was similarly stocking bags with low-fat milk, multigrain bars, fruit cups, packets of macaroni and cheese and other food.
"I’ve seen Jeff here, I’ve seen Alex here and I was surprised that they were here because they didn’t have to do this," Birch said.
