Brown, his mother and three sisters will spend the whole week in Orlando and plan to visit several theme parks. The Magic and their sponsors will pay for it, and McGrady has prepared a Christmas present for Brown.
"I think it will be a good idea. He can play ball with us, throw some baskets, watch our games and visit Disney World," McGrady said. "I hope he will be happy. I am very happy to be with my fans.
Brown was shot on his way to school on10.7. He is the eighth victim of a serial sniper attack in Washington. He was hospitalized for several weeks with injuries to his spleen, stomach and pancreas. Even his spleen was removed.
"I can't play as well as before," Brown said, grabbing Andy's sneakers with McGrady's signature. "I won't fight with others. And I will continue to work hard on dribbling. "
While in hospital, Brown told the doctor that his dream was to meet McGrady, the NBA scoring champion who averaged 29.3 points per game. These words soon reached the ears of Magic and McGrady. McGrady also sent him an encouraging message and a signed jersey.
"I was shocked by the news, especially when a boy has been through so much like him," McGrady said. "He really touched me. As athletes, we didn't know that we could inspire so many people.
"This really touched me. Now every time I stand on the court, I know that I am fighting for my fans. "
