Masai Ujiri has been very, very good to me. What an incredible human. #MasaiForever https://twitter.com/gordonstrat/status/1296760971894099970
So, back in June, I was on a short break from the hospital, resting at home before we started the transplant process.

Around this time, Masai Ujiri was on CTV with Lisa LaFlamme, to encourage important dialogue regarding the #BlackLivesMatter movement. https://beta.ctvnews.ca/national/canada/2020/6/1/1_4964715.html
'Time for us to talk': Masai Ujiri stresses need for conversation amid protests

Toronto Raptors president Masai Ujiri is urging everyone, from world leaders down, to have strong conversations about race as a way forward from racial tensions across Canada and the United States.

And @journorosa asked Masai if he would be interested in recording a little “hey, you’ve got this, dude!” video for me, because she is amazing.

And what Masai did, blew me away. Here is the message he had for me.
He didn’t HAVE to do anything, and he went above and beyond what I would ever have expected. It was such a special moment for me, and I’ll never forget it.

And seeing my dad’s face when we both saw the video for the first time is something I’ll remember forever, too. Lol
Anyways. Just wanted to add my story to the long list of “Masai Ujiri is an amazing human being” stories. #MasaiForever
