In honor of Mother’s Day let’s catch up with Wanda Pratt who is the mother of Kevin Durant.  As you all know Wanda is famous for the “You the Real MVP” speech that was presented by Kevin Durant during his MVP speech.  She is often caught on the sideline wincing, yelling, and cheering for her son.  She is KD’s biggest supporter.  She is the Real MVP.   Let’s take a look at the famous speech by Kevin Durant.

This video became viral and everyone began using the phrase “You The Real MVP,” which is still one of the best MVP speeches ever.

TMZ Sports caught up with Wanda a few days ago, and tried to get some insight on Kevin Durant’s list of possible destinations.

As you can see, Wanda is media trained and she did not budge.  The reporter tried his hardest to get some news out of her, but failed.  Maybe KD will stay in OKC?  I guess we will have to wait to find out.
