J.J. Redick and Adonal played together on the Orlando Magic up until Adonal's retirement in the fall of 2010. J.J. is a big supporter of Adonal Foyle and the Kerosene Lamp Foundation and even stepped in to represent Adonal when he was unable to attend a KLF fundraiser in Boston. We are excited to honor J.J. as the inaugural recipient of our Beacon of Excellence Award!
