His mom is Wanda Pratt. His dad is...? Where did he get "Durant" from?

It's not just KD either but many athletes who had questionable parents seem to have random last names.

I need to know the answer to this.

I'm actually not sure about this either.

His parents are listed as Wayne and Wanda Pratt

I'm guessing his biological father left and he was raised by his step dad.

So, you know his mom's last name is Pratt, you don't know what his dad's last name is and you can't figure out where he got his last name? Yeah, that a tough one to put together. :hammerhead:

When his father left the family when he was young, Wanda, his mother named him after the guy she was dating at the time...a Haitian man named William Durant. Unfortunately he didn't stick around. The same William Durant was the father of Tracy McGrady.

Holy shit! :lebronamazed:

Dumbasses who can't read.

i have a friend who's dad had to return home to his country of birth, to help the family that was still there, escape from civil war

is he scumbag?

maybe i came on a bit strong, but these things are often more complicated than, one person being right, and another being wrong

maybe kd's mom drove him away? point is we dont know, so we cant really pass judgement

I call BS on that whole "William Durant" myth. Durant was Kevin's mom's maiden name.


Wanda Durant gave birth to Kevin before she married Wayne, so the son was a Durant; she changed her name after they tied the knot.
Link (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1108360/2/index.htm)


His parents were separated at the time -- he keeps his mother's maiden name
Link (http://articles.latimes.com/2007/mar/18/sports/sp-durant18)

People should learn to do some research. Anybody can post crap on the 'net.

you never know why she would list him as a durant though. maybe an ligitimate child of the two. anyway, small world.
