Phoenix Suns superstar forward Kevin Durant has long commended his mother, Wanda Durant, for her profound impact on his basketball career. However, according to the 14-time All-Star, she is also responsible for kickstarting his passion for playing video games.
In a clip from the "Up & Adams Show with Kay Adams" uploaded to X/Twitter on Wednesday, Durant answered a few Christmas-themed questions. When asked about the "best Christmas present (he's) ever gotten," the 2014 MVP didn't hesitate to recount his mother buying him his first video game console.
"A Sega Genesis," Durant said.
According to Durant, the gift not only cured his childhood boredom but also marked the start of his longstanding gaming hobby.
