Cleveland Cavaliers fans already love J.R. Smith and now they have a reason to love him just a little bit more.
For Mother's Day, he and his wife bought flowers for the new mothers in the Cleveland Clinic NICU unit. It was a way for them to honor all the mothers who are going through a similar situation as they did.
Their youngest daughter Dakota was born five months early in January, weighing just one pound.
"My husband came up with the brilliant idea of getting all of the mothers in the NICU flowers today so we did just that. When the flowers arrived I pushed the cart and Demi placed an arrangement of flowers in every room...it was super special and we both enjoyed it."

J.R. Smith's wife, Shirley Smith, praises the doctors and nurses of the NICU unit in her blog.
"Growing up I would always hear the saying 'it takes a village to raise a child' so on today we chose to celebrate with our village which includes the Doctors, nurses and the entire staff in the NICU."
