San Antonio Spurs guard Blake Wesley is continuing to carve out a role for himself with the young team, but he's also matching the brand of the team he plays for in another way: Giving back to the youth through coaching and mentoring.
One is simple: Pass the ball. "Pound the Rock," as the team motto goes. That philosophy was the crown jewel of Spurs legend Manu Ginóbili's vast skill set; the reason that Tre Jones ultimately became the starting point guard at the end of last season.
As part of a partnership with global investment company Dart, the NBA's Jr. program held a basketball camp to allow boys and girls to learn about the game from experienced coaches or, in some cases, current players. And while he's looking to be a strong contributor on the court, he's certainly not forgetting to take his talents off the court in a way only he knows how to.
