Martell gives back

Jan 27, 2010; Portland, OR, USA;  Portland Trailblazers forward Martell Webster (23) dunks against the Utah Jazz at the Rose Garden. Webster donated $1000 to Haiti relief efforts for every point he scored in the game.

The Blazer game tonight was rough for the home team. They didn’t make a bucket until the 7 minute mark in the first quarter, going down 20-0 to the Utah Jazz in the process. But they fought back like they always do and make it interesting. Before the game Martell Webster tweeted that he would donate $1000 for every point he scored tonight. He had a rough start, but finished with 14 points, $14,000 he will give to the relief efforts. I encourage you to donate as well if you have not already.
