We've been talking about Samuel Dalembert's fantasy production in this space a lot recently. Time to recognize him for far more important contributions. Dalembert will present a check for $100,000 to help fund Haitian earthquake relief efforts at this Friday's game in Philadelphia, and has pledged to match contributions made by fans at the game.

If you're not in the neighborhood of the Wachovia Center but would like to get involved, visit the Sixers website or the Samuel Dalembert Foundation site.

Dalembert was able to block out the horrific news about his homeland and post another excellent game last night, contributing 12 points, 21 rebounds and a blocked shot in a 93-92 loss to the Knicks.
