"Kevin Durant: A Phenomenal NBA Superstar with a Legacy Spanning Nearly 15 Years and 2 Championships"
It is not possible to be born with extraordinary abilities and physical prowess on the NBA roster. Nevertheless, it is a fact that both heredity and environment play a significant part in the development of a young child who is interested in athletics. In order to gain a better understanding of how far Durant has gone and what he has been through during his entire life, it is possible that one would have the want to look back at his boyhood.
Kevin Durant asserts that his mother is the driving force for his success in the National Basketball Association.
Wanda Durant and Wayne Pratt welcomed their son KD into the world on September 29th, 1988. Unfortunately, his father made the decision to leave his family and divorce Wanda. Since he was a very young child, this has been a source of a great deal of stress and conflict in KD’s life. Additionally, as a result of this, the family made the decision to reside with Kevin’s grandma.
His father reappeared in KD’s life after a period of several years had passed. Durant, on the other hand, was already 13 years old and had both promise and talent in the sport. With regard to his growth from the time he was a young child until he became a teenager, it is possible to state that his father played a little to nonexistent role.
Another story that is quite different is that of Wanda Durant. When her son Kevin joined the league and went on to win the NBA Most Valuable Player award in 2014, he used the chance to express all she has done for him and how much it has turned him into the man he is today. Kevin went on to win the award.
When I was growing up, my mother, my brother, and I moved to a lot of different areas, and it felt like we were living in a box. I had the impression that there was no way out… Despite the fact that I have been through the most difficult moments with my family, I am still standing… I believe that my mother’s intention was to simply get my brother and me out of the house for a couple of hours, but as soon as I walked inside the gym, I fell in love with the game.
Kevin Durant then went on to express his gratitude to each and every person in his life who had a significant impact on his life. He waited until the very end to tell his mother, “And last but not least, my mother, I don’t think you know what you did.” When you were 18 years old, you became a brother to my brother. I came out after a period of three years. There was a significant disadvantage for us. When we were 21 years old, everyone told us that we weren’t supposed to be here because we were a single parent with two boys. All by ourselves, we went from one apartment to the other one.
Imagine for a moment what KD went through in his younger years; it is unsettling to even think about it. Because of his dogged determination, his family will never have to go through another experience like that again. Ever.
