All-Star week has arrived, and Zach Randolph is in a giving mood (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/All-Star-week-has-arrived-and-Zach-Randolph-is-;_ylt=AvI3KSdmsSnE1jInMNeXdp68vLYF?urn=nba,217953)

And, no, we're talking 'bout those two assists per game (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/3531/career;_ylt=AmVo1gHfSuXaf7.BtZkStu6bPKB4) he's been servin' up.
The Grizzlies forward is inviting the city of Memphis to help him celebrate being selected as a 2010 All-Star reserve by giving away 500 tickets (http://www.nba.com/grizzlies/news/randolph_allstar_ticket_giveaway-100205.html) to the Grizzlies' final game before the All-Star break — Tuesday, Feb. 9 against the Atlanta Hawks (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/mem/schedule).
"The nine-year NBA veteran and first time All-Star purchased the tickets to hand out to Grizzlies fans to thank them for the support that they've shown as he's helped the Grizzlies rebound from a 1-8 start to climb to their current 26-22 record.
'The fans' support throughout the city of Memphis has really helped me become an All-Star for the first time of my career, so I wanted to give something back and offer them the chance to watch us play one more time before the All-Star break,' said Randolph. 'I hope to represent the city and the people of Memphis as their All-Star and make them proud in Dallas next weekend.'"
Randolph will be distributing tickets on a first come, first serve basis on Monday, Feb. 8 in the Grand Lobby of FedExForum starting at 4:30 p.m. He'll also personally recycle any unused basketballs you may have.
