KD still is the real MVP.

A proud moment that's supposed to contribute to the growth in Anthony Cupp's manhood would eventually turn into a horrific nightmare. The 13 year old Detroit native recently made the cut for his 8th grade Basketball team and was a straight A student. In anticipation of making the team, he worked all Summer mowing lawns to save up money for his dream pair of sneakers, the Nike KD 7.

The young boy was so stoked he decided to wear his new KD's to school, like most of us would. However, while walking home alone from school for the first time, Anthony was mugged by a much larger kid who threw him down, snatched the sneakers right off his feet, and took off running.

Anthony's Mom was overwhelmed with a broken heart after her son arrived home from walking barefoot in the snow as he uttered, "My feet, my feet. I can't feel my feet."

Little did Anthony Cupp know, a 6'9 angel would soon make this tragic story a whole lot better. A week later Kevin Durant got wind of this story and surprised Anthony with a few new pairs of autographed Nike KD 7's as well as some Basketball gear. More than giving him new sneakers, Kevin Durant spent some time with young Anthony during practice to make sure he was doing well.

A beautiful ending to a tragic story... hopefully Anthony Cupp gets justice in this case when they catch the thief. But for now I'm sure meeting Kevin Durant and getting some autographed shoes makes up for it.
