The commercial is part of an anti-bullying campaign.


Students wore matching T-shirts with the word Respect on the front and the number 0 on the back in honor of their special guest when the point guard visited their school earlier this month.

Students erupted in cheers as Lillard entered the school cafeteria.



I hope a lot of people learn their lesson and treat other people how they want to be treated, said Crittenden.


A lot of people want to be like him, so they'll probably try not to bully, observed seventh grader, Pualani Walter.

He's taking time out of own day when he could be doing anything else and I appreciate that, added eighth grader Rahda Kannan.

Lillard said he appreciated the opportunity to speak with the students.

There could have been a bully here today, there could have been someone here who s been bullied, said Lillard. So when I see how they ve reacted to me today, it s positive.

The special commercial urges everyone to take a stand against bullying.
