A Valley dentist has teamed up with Phoenix Suns player Devin Booker to support local athletes in need. They've partnered with Special Olympics Arizona to provide dental care for the next 10 years. FOX 10's Stephanie Olmo has the details.
DEVIN BOOKER AND PHOENIX SUNS CHARITIES ANNOUNCE NEXT DEVIN BOOKER STARTING FIVE GRANTS TO VALLEY NONPROFITS Booker continues $2.5M pledge to the community, debuts commemorative DBS5 hoodie with proceeds benefiting Phoenix Suns Charities
Devin Booker has become a staple in the community since first arriving in The Valley in 2015.
The latest example of the two-time All-Star’s continued willingness to give back was on full display during the Suns’ 128-105 win over the New York Knicks last Friday.
Five local nonprofit organizations were invited to Phoenix Suns Arena for the game and told they were finalists for a Phoenix Suns Charities grant. But during a first-quarter timeout, a pre-recorded address from Booker unexpectedly came over the massive video board.
