zach randolph gives his warmup shirt to a kid

It looks like Christmas came early for one very special little Memphis Grizzlies fan!

On the court, Zach Randolph is one of the most feared big men in the NBA! But during a recent matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder, he showed his softer side!

Will, a young special needs Grizzlies fan caught Zach's eye on the sidelines and he went over to greet him! But Z-Bo didn't stop there, as he LITERALLY gave the kiddie the shirt off his back as an early Christmas present!!

Wow!! What a nice guy!!

Zach was also given the Kia Assist award last month for his contributions to the community, including donating hundreds of turkeys and hams to local families on Thanksgiving!

Well done, big man!

Ch-ch-check out Will wearing his shirt …AFTER THE JUMP!!!

You need to post up more great stories like this. I don't know who he is but he is awesome. The boy looks so happy. Aw.

No, just because he gave his shirt to a fan who happens to have a disability DOESN'T make him an exceptional human being. WHY does it need to be said that the boy has special needs? Why can't you just say he gave his shirt to a fan? There is no need to make the point that the little boy has a disability. NONE.
