Durant plays Santa to families affected by poverty, violence

Kevin Durant is doing some more good this holiday season.

Just days after donating $57,000 toward educating homeless children in Oklahoma City, the Golden State Warriors forward gave back in his new NBA city.

Durant surprised nine families of women and children who've dealt with poverty, addiction, homelessness, and violence by gifting them everything on their Christmas wishlists. He personally delivered the presents to the Oakland Elizabeth House, plus a TV, washer, and dryer, as well as Warriors and Nike swag.

Of course, long before he was a hoop megastar, Durant and his brother were raised by their single mother, Wanda.

KD may not be nice on the court, but he certainly is off it.
