Green Bay, Wis.(WFRV)- A lot of kids have the opportunity to attend some type of sports camp. But occasionally, an opportunity comes along to accomplish more than just practicing your dribble.

When Braeden Jansen was diagnosed with leukemia, a local teenage basketball star decided to use his skills to raise money for the Jansen family.

Jordan McCabe put on a clinic in Appleton today to teach area children basic basketball skills. He says he couldn't be more excited to put his skills towards such a great cause.

"It's one thing to have the talent and the skill, but for me to have the talent and skill that can help someone else, that's what I feel that I want to do." said McCabe.

Jordan has showcased his skills all over the country, including on the Ellen Degeneres Show. He says this event stands out as the most important.
