Autistic student shines at basketball

Here is a comment from YouTube

“It’s troubling that the coach waited until senior night to let Jason show off the skills he possesses. People with developmental disabilities should be treated as equals EVERY night, not just senior night. Maybe if Jason had been given more opportunities to show off his skills, he could have had nights like this throughout his 4 years of high school, instead of enthusiastically cheering on his teammates from the bench.”
