Lamar Stevens is a published author!  Working with LifeLinkPSU and Special Olympics, he penned a children’s book named “Lamar’s Climb: A Journey to Happy Valley.”  The 16 page book featured illustrations by six people with Down syndrom.

If Stevens is able to latch on with the Cavaliers, he’s clearly the type of player and person who can make a difference in the Cleveland community off the court.
