NBA Hall of Famer Earvin “Magic” Johnson was the man of the hour last night. He was honored at the 2014 Carousel of Hope Ball at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, benefitting Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes.
His wife Cookie, son EJ and daughter Elisa were all there to support their dad’s philanthropic efforts as they snapped a few pics with Sony Entertainment chief creative officer Clive Davis and Carousel of Hope Chairman Barbara Davis.

EJ showed off his new trim bod after getting gastric sleeve surgery this past August. Before going under the knife, EJ sought advice from Star Jones (who also had weight-loss surgery) and she told him, "A lot of people think it's the easy way out, but it's not. It's a step in the right direction, just a big push." Well alright.
