Kevin Durant has been forthright about why he opted to put off raising a family. Prior to becoming a parent, he made it clear that he intends to concentrate on his profession and develop himself personally. Additionally, he does not desire to put any kind of obligation on his children to take up basketball akin to him.
According to Durant, having children is a “big commitment” and he intends to make certain he feels prepared for it. Additionally, he has declared that he doesn’t want to jostle and sprint into whatever and that he desires to be a decent dad.
“That’s a big commitment. For one, I always felt like I was just really zoned in on my work and my alone time, and my free time. It’s too much for me to lock in on something like that, you know”.
Durant revealed his longing to have children in his 2021 interview with Draymond Green, but only after he has attained greater wisdom and age. He asserted he isn’t interested to be a “weekend dad” and that he would prefer to be available to grant his kids his undivided attention.
“And eventually, I do want that, but the older I got, I think it’s the better because I’m maturing more, knowing myself more, and knowing my situation a little bit more, so I think the longer I wait, is only going to be for the better.”
There is neither correct nor incorrect judgment in Durant’s resolve to postpone it till later to bring up children. His choice can be endorsed by some and disregarded by others. Durant is evidently not taking his choice haphazardly though, and is undoubtedly taking it meticulously.
Lana Rhoades revealed her date with “Kevin Durant” was a complete bust
Lana Rhoades, a former adult film star, admitted on her podcast in early 2022 that she was out on a date with an NBA player who happened to bring a backup date alongside. Although she did not explicitly address the player, she succeeded in making it resemble like it was Kevin Durant. She also indicated that her date was a Libra, and Durant happened to be the one and only Libra on the Brooklyn Nets team.
The date, as reported by Rhoades, was a completely disastrous washout and the player was hardly speaking to her all evening. Additionally, she asserted that he handled her friends catastrophically and that he brought the backup date out of anxiousness that she might ditch him.

It turned out that Rhoades later admitted to being pregnant and conducting an abortion reinforcing the speculation that Durant and Rhoades were engaged in an illicit affair. The father of the child was insinuatingly rumored to be Durant, but Rhoades hasn’t ever acknowledged or contradicted this particular issue.
The allegations that Durant had an illicit liaison with Rhoades have never been touched upon officially. But he has already been indicted for being a player, and he has had a track record of getting into scrapes.
Durant and Rhoades’ alleged affair has been at the forefront of rumors and whispers for several months now. Although Durant never explicitly verified or refuted the rumors, there is not enough tangible proof to corroborate them. The stark reality of what transpired between them may therefore never be known.
