According to NBC Sports Northwest's Lindsey Wisniewski, Portland rapper Anime bought out the same food truck as McCollum last week.
Wisniewski noted any donation during the event will support Campaign Zero, the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, Self Enhancement Inc. and North x Northeast Community Health Center.
