Meyers Leonard surprised by brother visiting from Afghanistan [Video]

 

Just watched this moving video above of Portland Trail Blazers rookie and former University of Illinois standout Meyers Leonard receiving an emotional surprise visit from his older brother, Bailey, who was serving overseas in Afghanistan for the Marine Corp. The brothers lost their father at a young age (Meyers was only 6) and so Bailey was a bit of a father figure for Meyers when growing up. At a game last year at the University of Illinois, a crew follows Bailey into Assembly Hall to surprise Meyers and watch his little brother play. Can't help but be affected by this gesture and family love seen above and I just wanted to share this heartwarming video to you today after seeing it amongst my Facebook statuses this afternoon. *tips hat* to my college homie Thek and Break.
