Cue the Ugly Cry: Watch Autotrader Give Car to Family

02/25/2019

If you ask us, the real star of the NBA All-Star Weekend on TNT was Autotrader, a Cox Automotive business.   

As part of its annual sponsorship, Autotrader donates a vehicle to a charitable organization in partnership with the NBA and TNT. This year, "Inside the NBA” host Ernie Johnson selected the charitable organization of his choice to receive a vehicle, courtesy of Autotrader. 

Johnson, whose 30-year old son Michael lives with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, chose the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Together, they found the Esquivel family — and 15-year-old Omar.  

Watch the video below to see how the rest of the story unfolded.
