Everyone knows the story of Frank Mason III by now.

He originally committed to Towson, he failed a class, he somehow ended up at Kansas, he turned into the Player of the Year favorite.

What you might not know about Mason is that he has a five-year old son named Amari.

Here’s what Mason had to say to his son during his Senior Night:

“He’s shy just like me. But I’m happy to have him here. He means the world to me. Everything I do is for you. I want you to grow up having a better life than I had. You really help me to become a better man and a better father everyday. I love you.”

Try to hold in a smile while Amari is hiding from the attention behind his hat. Try it. You can’t.
