"Rondo Hood" reinvigorates Boston playgrounds

Rajon "Grand Theft" Rondo picked up his 30th steal of the young season on Friday. Not only are Rondo's steals helping the C's out this year, but it turns out that his pocket picking of NBA millionaires is also building back up Boston playgrounds.
Dime Magazine:

For every steal Rondo notches this season, Red Bull will donate $500 to the city’s Parks and Recreation Department to refurbish parks throughout Boston as part of the Boston’s Got Wings program.

This first 30-steal milestone will see $15,000 allocated to Boston’s famed Malcolm X Park – a court rich with basketball history that is widely considered the top pickup run spot in Beantown. And now, as the season rolls on, the public gets to play a major role in deciding which courts gets the next infusion of refurbishment money.
