No. 4 — CJ’s NBA Cares Community Assist Award

Next on our list of non-basketball-related stories comes courtesy of fellow journalist CJ McCollum. The NBA awarded McCollum in February, in recognition of “CJ’s Press Pass,” a journalism-based mentorship program for students in the Portland metro area. Fans can still vote for CJ to get the season-long award, too.

For the second straight year, #CJMcCollum is a finalist for the @nbacares Community Assist Award. Every retweet today counts as two votes! #NBACommunityAssist pic.twitter.com/M78SmNgKsK
