<p><a href="/profile/SnoopDogg" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Snoop Dogg</a> is a baller in every sense of the word. He has an avid hoops fan and has participated in many basketball exhibitions, including the 2014 NBA Celebrity All-Star Game. This weekend, he heads to Flint to host a basketball fundraiser called &#8220;Hoops 4 Water.&#8221; The event is being organized by former Toronto Raptors star and Flint native Morris Peterson.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll tell you what, Snoop loves Flint,&#8221; Peterson told <a href="http://www.mlive.com/sports/flint/index.ssf/2016/05/andre_drummond_mark_ingram_to.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michigan Live</a>. &#8220;He is doing this from his heart, and he&#8217;s not asking for a dime. He&#8217;s coming down here on his own merit, and he&#8217;s concerned with what he can do for the city&#8230; We want to make people feel good and continue to bring awareness to the Flint water crisis. I don&#8217;t want it just to be swept under the rug and this is one of my ways of giving back just to bring people together and forgetting about everything for a few hours.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Hoop 4 Water&#8221; is scheduled to go down Saturday, May 21 at 2 P.M. at the Dort Federal Event Center in Flint. Tickets are going for anywhere from $10 to $100. All proceeds will go to the Morris Peterson Jr. Foundation.
