KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The University of Tennessee men's basketball team announced on social media one of its own needed help.
A fire destroyed the home of Zakai Zeigler's in Queens, New York. The fire destroyed everything where his mother and four-year-old nephew lived. Vital to the home was accessibility equipment for the child, who needs a wheelchair and splints.
In the hours since the team made the announcement, fans rallied around the Vols player.
Contributors raised $300,000 for Zeigler.
