In an age where professional athletes personify words like, “selfish,” and “greedy,” Derek Fisher is anything but.

The NBA star is considering retirement to spend more time tending to his 11-month old daughter who has cancer in her left eye. For now, he’s been let out of his $21 million contract by the Utah Jazz. It’s an amazing, inspirational story.

Two months ago, I named Derek Fisher one of my Heroes of the Week on Week-ends after a gutty, clutch performance in the playoffs against Golden State.

Another blogger captures the details in this account including video of that game against Golden State in May.


Derek Fisher: loving, devoted father, honorable man.
