Termed Out Assemblymember Lloyd Levine Considers Basketball As a Future Career After Successful Game for Foster Children

LOS ANGELES – Who says termed out Assemblymembers can’t jump. With Magic Johnson as his coach and Snoop Dog as his teammate, Assemblymember Lloyd Levine (D-Woodland Hills) played hoops raising thousands of dollars to provide services for foster children in the San Fernando Valley. The “One Child At A Time Celebrity Basketball Game” was hosted by the LA Department of Children and Family Services and comedian Katt Williams at Pierce College in Woodland Hills.

Former Lakers star and celebrity basketball game coach Magic Johnson advises Levine to get out of his political comfort zone and try basketball as a livelihood. To the right, Snoop Dog makes no attempt to recruit Levine as a future rapper. Instead he quietly listens as Levine awards comedian Katt Williams (LEFT) for his work with foster children.
