But earlier this season, the Cavs had a different reason to celebrate when they hosted their first-ever Team IMPACT Day during a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before tipoff, dozens of prospective families from the Cleveland Clinic joined Team IMPACT participating families and student-athletes from across the Cleveland area to learn more about the program, hear about their Team IMPACT journeys, and apply to get matched with a team of their own. Ten-year-old Kaycee Clark, who is matched with the Kent State women\u2019s basketball team; her mom, Nicole; and Kent State women\u2019s soccer player and Team IMPACT Fellow Amanda Winquist shared their experience in the program and how Team IMPACT has changed their lives, families, and campus communities. \u201cTeam IMPACT has given us a distraction during the worst time in our lives,\u201d Nicole shared. \u201cThe KSU girls are an extension of our family, and we&#8217;ve grown attached to all of them. They root for Kaycee always and make her feel so involved and important which has been huge for her confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"588\" data-id=\"5271\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?resize=800%2C588&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?w=2560&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C221&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C753&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C565&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1129&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1506&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?w=1600&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2615-scaled.jpg?w=2400&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-id=\"5273\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5273\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?w=2560&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?w=1600&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2528-scaled.jpg?w=2400&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"601\" data-id=\"5272\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?resize=800%2C601&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?w=2560&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C769&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C577&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1154&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1538&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?w=1600&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_2603-scaled.jpg?w=2400&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 2400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the game, the crowd got to learn even more about Team IMPACT through in-game reads on the PA and Team IMPACT videos on the JumboTron. Between quarters, Kaycee was welcomed onto the court to toss t-shirts into the crowd, receiving cheers and support from thousands of fans. \u201cThrowing the t-shirts, it felt really special to be honored like that,\u201d Kaycee said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The day was made even more special because just weeks earlier, Kaycee hit a major milestone. After a surgery to remove a tumor in her brain followed by months of chemo and radiation, Kaycee completed her treatment, and her Kent State basketball teammates were right there with her to celebrate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-id=\"5275\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_425631154_1042056736881588_6264287444495508297_n_1080.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_425631154_1042056736881588_6264287444495508297_n_1080.jpg?w=1080&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_425631154_1042056736881588_6264287444495508297_n_1080.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_425631154_1042056736881588_6264287444495508297_n_1080.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_425631154_1042056736881588_6264287444495508297_n_1080.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-id=\"5269\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_426606006_920455819706428_3790570644134983789_n_1080.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_426606006_920455819706428_3790570644134983789_n_1080.jpg?w=1080&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_426606006_920455819706428_3790570644134983789_n_1080.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_426606006_920455819706428_3790570644134983789_n_1080.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.teamimpact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Snapinsta.app_426606006_920455819706428_3790570644134983789_n_1080.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kaycee said her time with the Cavs made her feel like a rockstar, something the Kent State community has known about her since they met.
