Former UNC guard Kenny Smith is bringing current and former NBA stars together to raise money to benefit Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, Kevin Garnett and others will lace 'em up Sunday at 5 p.m. at the Toyota Center in Houston. TNT will carry the game at 11 p.m. Players have pledged to donate money and supplies valued at more than $1 million to aid Katrina victims and are scheduled to hand out truckloads of supplies to shelters across the city before the game.
