Jamarion Styles lost his hands and most of his arms when he was a baby, due to a rare bacterial infection. But it couldn’t destroy the spirit of this 13-year-old to become a basketball player. Every week, he came to a community center hoping to shoot hoops with the other kids. But he was always rejected due to his disability.
