In the latest digital edition of "The Association," it's a fan, not a player, who has the starring role. Jesse Lawrence, a Brooklyn fan fighting kidney disease, got to meet the team (all of whose name he knew), get a tour of the locker room with Brook Lopez, an autographed ball from Deron Williams and a front row seat at the Nets - Knicks game at Barclays Center. It was also sponsored by the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
