I’ve discussed a few of these. He did do one basketball camp, but not for charity, for $200 a kid and hasn’t done one since. And yes he’s good at going to things, it’s great and free PR for what will surly go viral. The 4th of July BBQ thing was essentially fake. He went to a guys home (local Real Estate guy I won’t give his name for his privacy) that he was invited to, which is what the picture is from that circulated and went viral. My issue with him is just how clearly fake he is. I don’t like the organization bending over backwards for an ungrateful douche they’ll never be able to please. The dude has been given an absurdly GOOD situation the first five years of his career, that have benefitted him immensely, and in turn he threw his other most responsible teammate for that success under the bus for months, got the head medical trainer that took care of him for 4 years fired over literally nothing, demanded everything he wants, and then just let’s garbage fly over and over without adequately just addressing ****.
You know why the Rudy/Donovan drama hangs over the franchise? Because of the a**hat who threw a public fit for 3 months in the first place. Oh is the poor guy who started all this nonsense tired of being asked questions about it, then maybe you shouldn’t act like a little child every time you hit a rough patch. There’s plenty of reports that behind that PR there’s a hard to manage diva and I’d actually just like to get him out the door ASAP so I can enjoy the team again, because yes, I can’t stand the dude.
Oh and the answer to what $ figure he’s donated to the state. None. The Jazz gave him a nice $200 million pay day with a PO though didn’t they.
