The backpacks will be filled with essential school supplies including notebooks, markers, glue sticks, rulers and more. Following the donation, the new Suns guard will sign autographs and interact with the children in attendance.

Thomas grew up attending the Boys & Girls Clubs in his hometown of Spokane, Washington and chose to donate to the organization because of his childhood ties.

Can you be a fan favorite before you play a single game?

What a guy. Small dude with a big heart.

Yeah, that's pretty awesome to do that for his new community. Especially before he's even played a single minute for the Suns. It's refreshing after Bledsoe's "me me me" behavior and seeming inability to show gratitude towards his team or community even after a year of being here.

"When I was growing up, we didn't have nothing like this," said Bledsoe, who played his collegiate basketball at Kentucky. "I just wanted to give back. As far as popularity, I'm not worried about that. I just want these kids to have something to look forward to."

The point guard for the Phoenix Suns said he was peppered with questions from the campers.

"I just walked in and they want to know, 'How is it playing in the NBA?'" he said. "I tell them what it takes to make it. To give these kids this kind of wisdom, it means a lot to me."
