Will somebody please pass me that box of tissues?

Mitchell Marcus is the loyal and passionate manager of the Coronado High School basketball team - the Thunderbears - and he also happens to have a developmental disability. In the final game of the season, coach Peter Morales named Mitchell in the squad with the sole goal being to help him score a basket. It didn't quite work out the way he envisaged. The clip was originally released in 2013, but it's gone viral again and it's easy to see why. We'll say no more; just watch this and pretend there's something in your eye afterwards. https://youtu.be/AVxRdvhMhhA Clip via - This Blew My Mind
