Jason McElwain is autistic and also a basketball lover. So intense is his love for the game that he has remained associated with the high school basketball team for many years, helping with whatever the team needs, including handing out water. Because of his devotion to the game, the coach asked him to “suite up” for the last game of the season. This did not necessarily mean that he would get a chance to play, but at least he would know what it meant to sit on the sidelines. But in the last 4 minutes of the game, the coach pointed at Jason to get into the game. What happened next was completely unexpected. Watch the video to find out.
This is not just a feel-good video. It also shows that when the energy level rises, belief can turn into reality and the unexpected can unfold.
