Los Lakers de Los Ángeles firmaron este domingo al joven Yitzi Teichman, un paciente que sufre de cáncer de cerebro, a un contrato de un día. La ceremonia, organizada por los Lakers y la fundación Make-A-Wish, se llevó a cabo antes del partido de esta noche en contra de los Hornets de Charlotte. El gerente general de los Lakers, Mitch Kupchack, presentó ante la prensa a Yitzi, un chico de 17 años de Baltimore que actualmente está combatiendo una dura lucha contra el cáncer. Antes del juego, Yitzi entrenó con los Lakers, metió algunas canastas y se sentó junto a ellos durante el partido en el Staples Center.
