Knight has been playing professionally in Germany, Turkey and Spain for the past 6 years, he wants his campers to know there is more to life than the NBA. 

"Its a great opportunity you get to see the world. There's a different brand of basketball in each country. I play against all of NBA guys. A lot of guys play here in Europe after they play in the NBA," Knight said. "It's been a great experience for me so I just wanna come back and give the kids something positive and something to look forward to every day."
