When Danny Granger was growing up near New Orleans, he didn’t have the opportunity to go to a basketball camp. So, when he was drafted No. 17 by the Pacers from New Mexico in 2005, he vowed to give back to the youth in Albuquerque in a way that no other professional basketball player had previously: his very own basketball camp.

“Danny is my friend," said one camper, "because he asked if he could be on my team.”
