What a great story — it made my day. So many people pre-judge other people — this proves everyone deserves a chance.

It’s like he scored a point for every single person that loves basketball that supposedly aren’t good enough to play.
Just pure awesomeness. I’m so glad this really happened. (Thank goodness for video, otherwise NO ONE would have believed it.)

This is pretty much the coolest story ever. You cant help but tear up a bit, and then get goosebumps when you see him hit shot after shot and see that crowd just going crazy! Way to go Jason. Simply amazing.

Great job Jason!! You were amazing!! I’d like to also thank the Coach, players, and fans…I have a daughter with Autism as well, and I cried when I saw this…it’s so inspiring!! It makes my day when I hear news like this, and it gives me hope that one day she can also achieve her dreams.
