Even Kevin Durant had to laugh at this response to KD saying his Mom made him do 200 push-ups at the age of 8 🤣 KD on his NBA Draft Combine experience: “I remember it like it was yesterday. All the strength coaches were laughing at me and shit. They were giggling with each other that I couldn’t lift 185 pounds, and I was like, ‘All right, keep laughing. Keep laughing.’ It was a funny thing, because I was the only one that couldn’t lift it and I was struggling to lift it. I was embarrassed at that point, but I’m like, ‘Give me a basketball, please. Give me a ball.'”
