Born in Washington D.C., Wayne Pratt, and Wanda Durant, gave birth to a bouncing baby
boy on September 29, 1988.
KD did not have a close family as his parents got divorced while he was still a very young
boy which had him raised by his grandmother, Barbara Davis.
Luck smiled on KD when he clocked 13.
As a 13-year-old teenager, his father came back to take up the fatherly role in his life.
This unexpected turnaround gave KD the privilege of traveling to basketball tournaments around
the country with his dad.
Even at 13-year-old, Durant had grown to 6 feet tall.
Unusually tall for a boy his age.
KD has 3 siblings Brianna, Tony, and Rayvonne.
Career Kevin played with the Texas Longhorns in college
and then was the number 2 pick in the draft.
The Supersonics become the Oklahoma City Thunder.
He has also played for Golden State Warriors and Brooklyn Nets.
After over a decade in the NBA, Kevin Durant is already an all time great.
He is a 4 time scoring champion, MVP and 2 time Champion, with hopefully more to come.
Now let’s get into how Kevin Spends his Millions
Houses KD bought two houses.
One of which was a mansion with seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms in the Oakland hills.
The mansion is stunning.
This 9000 square foot house comes with floor-to-ceiling windows, an in-home theater, a curved staircase
that would make for a most dramatic entrance, a circular driveway, and—of course—a private
basketball half court.
This house was listed for $6 million dollars when he sold it.
Kevin now has a home in the Hidden Hills subdivision in Southern California.
With 10,000 square foot and 1.8 acres of land.
This area is surrounded by celebrities such as Lil Wayne ,Madonna and Drake.
This mansion gated community is really private of but with a $15,600,000 price tag, you know
KD is living the good life like a superstar.
Cars Kevin is a real car lover.
According to records, Kevin has the most expensive car collection in the NBA.
Even more than LeBron or Steph Curry.
Presently, he has about 8 cars which most of us would die to have just one.
The collection includes: • The iconic 1966 Ford GT40.
• The unstoppable Lamborghini Aventador Roadster.
• The Luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom.
• Ferrari.
• Range rover.
• And Mercedes Benz.
Altogether it is estimated that his car collection is worth about $4 Million.
Yo!
The Number 35 If you are an NBA fan, this won't probably
be the first time you noticed that KD always wore the number 35 on his jerseys.
You probably have been wondering why this is?
Well, the number is not the number of wives or kids he wishes to have.
The number 35 is out of respect and honor for his AAU coach, Charles Craig, murdered
at 35.
Charles was like a father to KD when his dad was practically absent from his life.
Apart from being his coach and mentor, He also helped with monetary donations to help
KD survive.
This shows how Durant values loyalty to his mentors.
No wonder why he achieved so much.
A part of it was his desire and drive to keep Charles Craig’s legacy alive.

The verses 2 to 4.

Quite a generous guy Kevin is.
Love life Falling and staying in love is every person’s
dream.
Expect me…While it works out for some, it doesn't for many.
For Kevin, he hasn't been so lucky in the love aspect and he has never been married
although he was engaged to Monica Wright.
The duo went their separate ways before they could get married.
When Kevin was asked the reason for this, he said; "I didn't know how to love her, so
we went our separate ways".
On Monica’s side, when asked the reason for breaking up with KD, she said; "I do not
want to go after the fame that will make me compromise my faith in God because I prefer
to get God's rewards than that of men."
Both of them had different views as regards to why they broke up and we can't decide who
was right in all.
Kevin was rumored to have a girlfriend, Jasmin Shine who is a model.
He was also rumored to have dated a real estate agent, Cassandra Anderson.
And Kevin has also been linked to adult film star Lana Rhodes.
But as of today, KD is still single and not married.
