Wilkins, the son of long time New York Knick Gerald Wilkins and nephew to Pam Pack legend and Hall of Famer Dominique Wilkins, was the center of attention at the Wilkins Appreciation Dinner hosted by his cousin Anne Latham.
The hall was packed with family and friends as several prizes were raffled off and various entertainers took the stage.
Of all the guest speakers and acts, none were better than the guest of honor himself. Wilkins closed the dinner with a touching, emotional 10-minute speech in which he recalled how the support of the people of Washington comforted him on a tough night in 2004.
