The NBA world was hit with a wave of concern this morning after reports emerged that Wanda Pratt — affectionately known as “Mama Durant” — has been hospitalized following a sudden and serious illness. The news quickly spread across social media, with fans, fellow athletes, and celebrities expressing shock and sending prayers for her recovery.
Sources close to the family revealed that Wanda was rushed to the hospital late last night after experiencing alarming symptoms. While officials have not confirmed the exact nature of her condition, insiders say it was “serious enough” to require immediate medical attention. Kevin Durant, currently in the midst of his NBA commitments, reportedly dropped everything to be at his mother’s side, flying out within hours of receiving the news.
Witnesses at the hospital described Durant arriving quietly but visibly shaken, wearing a hoodie pulled low over his face. “You could tell he was holding back tears,” one hospital staff member said. “He’s always spoken so highly of his mom. You could see how much this was hitting him.”
Wanda Pratt is more than just Kevin Durant’s mother — she’s a beloved figure in the basketball community. Known for her unshakable support and wisdom, she’s often been courtside cheering him on, and her emotional speeches, particularly during Durant’s MVP acceptance in 2014 when he famously called her “the real MVP,” have made her an icon in her own right.
Over the years, Mama Durant has become a symbol of resilience, having raised Kevin and his brother alone after their father left when Kevin was still a baby. Her influence and guidance have been widely credited as one of the driving forces behind Durant’s success.
The sudden hospitalization has left many fans reflecting on the bond between mother and son. “This isn’t just about basketball anymore — this is about family, love, and the woman who raised one of the greatest players of our generation,” one fan wrote on Twitter.
As of now, there’s been no official update from Kevin Durant or his representatives regarding Wanda’s current condition. However, people close to the situation say she is undergoing treatment and that doctors are “doing everything they can.”
Messages of support have been pouring in from around the NBA. LeBron James posted a prayer emoji on Instagram with the caption, “Stay strong Mama Durant.” Stephen Curry reportedly reached out privately, offering to help in any way possible. Even former teammates and rivals have set aside competitive rivalries to show solidarity.
For Kevin Durant, this moment is a stark reminder that life off the court can be far more important than anything that happens in an arena. Friends say he is “deeply worried” and “emotionally drained” but is trying to remain positive. “He keeps saying his mom is a fighter,” a source shared.
In times like this, the sports world often comes together as a family, and right now, that family is united in wishing Wanda Pratt a full and speedy recovery.
Fans are hopeful for good news in the coming days. Until then, all eyes — and hearts — are with Mama Durant.
