Houston Rockets owner Leslie Alexander says he'll up his donation to those affected by Hurricane Harvey to $10 million.
He had already pledged $4 million but announced the increase Tuesday.
Alexander is not alone. Several sports teams and athletes have been pitching in to help after Hurricane Harvey.
The owners of the NFL's Texans, MLB's Astros and NBA's Rockets have pledged millions of dollars toward relief efforts.
Athletes are stepping up, too. Texans defensive end JJ Watt started raising money for victims and beat his original goal of $200,000 in two hours. By Tuesday afternoon, money was coming in so fast that he raised the goal to $2 million.
Watt, who is stuck in Dallas, talked about the campaign in a video posted on Monday night. He said he was working hard to make sure the money went directly to people in need, not to administrative fees.
"Houston, stay strong. We are with you," Watt said. "We're going to do everything that we can to make sure that you guys get back on your feet."
The teams and players have made their charity announcements while they're stranded outside Houston themselves. The Texans had to move a preseason game to Dallas, and the Astros are playing what was supposed be a home series this week in Florida.
