Kevin Durant Thoughtfully Gifts Warmup Shirt to 7-Year-Old on his Birthday

For as much as Kevin Durant has been villainized since his decision to join the Golden State Warriors, one would think he was a criminal of some sort or a horribly terrible person.

But actually, that couldn’t be farther from the truth, as KD illustrated on Wednesday night.

Happy Birthday, from Kevin Durant! #ThisIsWhyWePlay

For as many me-first players as there are in the NBA, there are just as many if not more great guys like Durant.

This was a tremendous gesture that he didn’t have to make at all, but since this kid and his parents forked over hard-earned money to come watch him play, Durant just did something nice in return.

Sure beats the rest nights that many star players have been taking this season.
