Look: Matt Barnes Just Came to the Rescue of Jackie Christie's Daughter and Grandson

Here's what he did to help the little boy who was burned in a tragic accident.

Upon learning that Jackie Christie's daughter, TaKari, was trying to raise $3,000 on GoFundMe to cover the medical expenses of her burned son, the Sacramento Kings' forward swooped right in and donated the full amount.

Check out his kind gesture.

TaKari's toddler son suffered burns from an accident that took place at his daycare. She resorted to GoFundMe because of her estranged relationship with her mom, Jackie. According to The Shade Room, the mother and daughter don't communicate, even though the Basketball Wives L.A. star publicly champions her relationship with her other daughter, Chantel.

Although Barnes's $3,000 donation was a great gesture, we can't help but wonder if it was a jab towards Jackie, who has appeared on the reality show with his ex, Laura Govan, in the past.

Hmm ...

Through it all, though, Christie seems unfazed.
