Wow, this is a very touching story. Sadly, 5 year old JP Gibson has leukemia. One of his hopes is to play NBA basketball. The Utah Jazz did their part to help fulfill that wish. They signed him to a one day contract and welcomed him onto the court to play in a team scrimmage in front of fans. It was like a dream come true. Gibson has a nose for the game, as he took the inbound pass straight to the hole for a dunk! Watch the clip below!

It is really awesome when teams and players get involved like this for a special cause, but much more importantly lets all hope and pray that Gibson will continue to live his dreams and make a full recovery. Fight on!
