Grant Willams talking about Kemba Walker being his vet when he got drafted to Boston Celtics:
“Kwalk was the type to be like anything you got like I’m here for you. Like, damn covid happened that year. I was like I don’t know what I’m gonna do because my lease I can’t pay for the lease. I ain’t getting paid no more. And then at the same time like I can’t go home to my grandparents or my mom like they 90, 60 some years old. Kwalk was like come live with me. So I lived with Kwalk the entire covid year until we went to the bubble.”

This is awesome: The legendary Cam Newton working out and motivating his young son while on a run together.
Cam has 9 children and makes sure to take time out of his day to spend with each of them.
You can tell this kid will grow up to be a star ❤️

Cade Cunningham to Dirk:
