First viewing of Meek's new book!
BOB STARKEY: One of the more exciting parts of my trip happened at practice today but it had nothing to do with basketball. A member of "Team Temeka" showed up with a special surprise. Quency Phillips came over in the middle of practice and presented me with a copy of the book, "Decisions, Decisions, Decisions," that he co-wrote with Temeka. The book is part of the "Meek Moments" Series and is getting ready to be released nation wide.
It is an incredibly important project for Temeka with all the proceeds going to the Jewell Johnson Scholarship Fund. The scholarship is named after Temeka's grandmother who was a teacher who greatly impacted so many -- especially Temeka.
We will continue to give you more information on where you can get a copy of the book as well as some future book signings by Temeka. But today was a special day for her and Quency that will be magnified tomorrow with a special day of promotion, the 2nd annual "Night of Hope." More on that later as well.
What an amazing day for Temeka, Quency and the HOPE Foundation!
