Teen with Down syndrome suits up for Harlem Globetrotters, nails three-pointer

Kevin Grow got into the action with the Harlem Globetrotters, and the 18-year-old with Down syndrome even nailed a three-pointer.

Last month, 18-year-old Kevin Grow signed a two-day contract with the Philadelphia 76ers after his impressive moves on the court went viral.

The Philadelphia teen, who has Down syndrome, has been the team manager of the Bensalem High School boys basketball team for the past four years. When given the opportunity to play in the Bensalem's second last game of the season, he scored four 3-pointers in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter.

After his skills caught the attention of the Sixers — as part of his ceremonial contract, he took part in pre-game activities and was given his own jersey and roster spot — the Harlem Globetrotters came calling.

First, they awarded the senior a Junior Phenom Award for demonstrating "Globetrotter Spirit."

Then the team recruited Grow, also known as "KG3," as their 3-point specialist — and asked him to suit up for the fourth quarter of their game in Philadelphia this past Sunday.

"He watches the Globetrotters religiously," Grow's father, Earl, told ABC News.

And, yes, he sunk a 3-pointer for the team.

"The energy in the room was very great. The crowd loved Kevin. It was a great experience to be there and see him happy. I went to the game to show my support," Bensalem High School sophomore Brian Ortiz told NBC Philadelphia.

"He's definitely had an impact on the school. There are signs in support of him everywhere. The whole school is behind Kevin."

Grow is now only the second person in history to play for both the Sixers and the Globetrotters. Wilt Chamberlain was the first.

"Kids with special needs have a lot of abilities you don’t even know," said Grow's mother, Dorothy, after the game. "Don't underestimate them. Challenge them."

"Make sure they can reach their full potential," she added.
