Thursday evening at the City Hall town meeting Mayor Kevin Johnson and the rest of the council members started off their agenda honoring the Sacramento Kings basketball player Omri Caspi. Caspi is the first Israeli born athlete to play in the NBA. There was a short but sweet video played showing some highlights of Caspi's first season as a professional. Then District 3 Councilman Steve Cohn presented Caspi with a recognition award. Well over two-thirds of the audience was there to witness Capsi being recognized not only for his basketball skills but for him being a big part of the jewish community here in Sacramento.  After a standing ovation for Capsi he said a few words of gratitude as his shyness was very apparent.
