CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Owner Michael Jordan and his struggling Bobcats turned their focus Monday to fighting hunger in the Charlotte area.
The Bobcats, who have lost 17 of their last 18 games, championed the community effort as part of the "Cats Care" initiative.
Jordan arrived at the Bobcats arena as the passenger in a 26-foot, 14,000-pound refrigerated mobile pantry worth $125,000 that the Bobcats, along with the team's broadcast partner -- FOX SportsSouth -- donated to the Second Harvest Food Bank. They also donated $125,000 in food to be distributed around the area.
Jordan didn't talk about his organization's struggles on the court, but did say when he first took over the team one of the things he wanted to emphasize "was for the Bobcats to connect back to the community."
