There's a saying, "give the shirt off of your back," that is a common statement of good will and charity, but actually seeing it happen really emphasizes the overall feel of the gesture. So when Memphis Grizzlies forward Zach Rudolph did this for a young disabled fan during a game this week, it was just further proof that wealthy athletes still know how to give back even when it's something as simple as a shirt.

"In the spirit of the holidays, Zach Randolph takes off his shooting shirt and gives it to a young fan," the video description explains. Though the holiday mentality is a great way to sell this story, it really just looks like Zach reacted to meeting this special fan and felt that if the young boy wanted the shirt he should have it. Clearly the shooting shirt is just another one that Randolph gets before every game, but to this fan it's much, much more than that. Randolph understands that and gave it to him without hesitating.

This story comes just days after Houston Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson let a dozen underprivileged and at-risk kids to go shopping in a toy store for 80 seconds. When the children check out, he pays for every single item that they managed to get in the time limit. He also bought them Xbox 360s! In total, he spent $17,352.
