Balling for a cause! Roc Nation held its Summer Classic Charity Basketball game to help raise funds for several non-profit organizations. T.I., Fabolous, Fat Joe, DJ Khaled and more came out to hoop it up and show their support. Flicks inside…

Yesterday, Roc Nation Sports hosted its 2nd annual Summer Classic Charity Basketball Tournament at the Barclays Center for an evening of fun with a cause.
All proceeds from the event will serve to equally benefit programs for the CC Sabathia’s PitCCh In Foundation, Robinson Cano’s RC22 Foundation, Miguel Cotto’s Fundacion El Angel and Nick Jonas’ Beyond Type 1 Foundation. Sabathia, Cano, Cotto and Jonas served as captains to their celebrity basketball teams.
Roc Nation Sports senior management executive Shawn “Pecas” Costner, Fat Joe and T.I. were all in attendance, snapping it up with CC on the sidelines during the festivities.
