Dmitri Moore couldn't believe his eyes.
Lying in his Primary Children's Hospital bed in Salt Lake City, a familiar pair of Nike shoes appeared on his television screen.
He had seen these Kobe 8 Venice Beaches before. Just a few days earlier, while lying in the same bed, the 14-year-old from Bountiful had held them in his hands, but now they were courtside at a BYU basketball game being played miles away.
The shoes belonged to Cougars guard Jared McGregor, who was wearing them with pride after having had them autographed earlier that week.
The autograph had come from Dmitri.
