Sports is full of real life drama, sometimes to the point where it seems like it could only POSSIBLY be fiction. But itโs not.
We arenโt necessarily talking about Cinderella teams winning the championship, or dramatic comebacks and buzzer-beaters. Sometimes it goes even deeper than that, into conversations that extend beyond the scope of sport.
Andrew Jones missed nearly two full seasons of Texas Longhorn basketball after discovering that he had leukemia. After receiving treatment over the two year span (making brief appearances in two games), Jones finally made his full return to the team. He didnโt disappoint.
He didnโt just produce, he recorded a career-high 20 points, beating his previous mark of 19. After the emotional game, Jones game an interview that is sure to give you the feels.
Incredible. There are some things that are bigger than sports.
