LeBron delivers an assist to Toronto-area school teams

LeBron James arrived in Toronto sometime between Wednesday evening and Thursday morning for NBA All-Star weekend.

His first order of business was a generous one.

LeBron went on to donate new team uniforms to kids from Earl Haig Secondary School, courtesy of the LeBron James Family Foundation to reward sportsmanship and leadership.

The uniforms will be worn by 23 different sport teams ranging from basketball, cricket and rugby to badminton and a special needs group.

James also invited 23 young students from Ohio to help donate the uniforms and join him in a number of activities from volounteering at Variety Village, see a play at the Royal Alexandra Theatre, and a visit to watch James practice. The students have never been outside of the United States.

This isn't unheard of from James' side. He's made similar donations to other All-Star hosting cities since 2005.

LeBron will play in his 12th All-Star Game at the Air Canada Centre on Sunday.
