Alright, let’s talk about this Kevin Durant fella and his, uh, what was her name? Monica Wright, yeah, that’s it. So, they was a thing, like, a long time ago, you know? Like, way back when my chickens were still layin’ good eggs. I heard tell they got engaged, like, gettin’ hitched and all that.
Kevin and Monica: The Early Days
Now, from what I gathered listenin’ to the radio and such, these two, they met at some basketball game for high school kids. Imagine that! Kids playin’ ball and findin’ love. It was way back in, oh, what year was it? Two thousand and six, somethin’ like that. A long, long time ago. They was young, you know? Full of pep and vinegar, like my old rooster back on the farm.
- Met in 2006 at a high school all-star game.
- Got engaged in 2013.
Seems like they was sweet on each other for a good while. Seven years, that’s a mighty long time to be courtin’ someone. Folks was sayin’ they was gonna be the next big thing, like them movie stars on the TV. But, you know, life ain’t always a smooth road. Sometimes there’s bumps and potholes, like that old dirt road leadin’ to town.
The Engagement and the Breakup
So, yeah, they got engaged. That’s when you promise to marry someone, you know? Like makin’ a forever deal. Happened in 2013, I think. But then, poof! It all went south. They broke it off in 2014. Just like that. One minute you’re plannin’ a weddin’, the next you’re back to bein’ single. Don’t make no sense, does it?
What Kevin Said
I heard tell Kevin, he talked about it later. Said he didn’t know how to love her right. Can you believe that? A big fella like him, all famous and whatnot, and he don’t know how to love a woman? Well, I reckon love ain’t easy for nobody, no matter how rich or famous they are. It’s like tryin’ to catch a greased pig, slippery and hard to hold on to. He said it in some magazine, GQ or somethin’. Said he had a fiance, but didn’t know how to love her. Poor girl.
Monica Wright Now
Now, Monica, she’s doin’ alright, I hear. She’s workin’ in basketball too, somethin’ like a boss lady for a ladies’ team. The Phoenix Mercury, that’s the one. Good for her, I say. She’s a strong woman, that one. Pickin’ herself up and movin’ on. That’s what you gotta do in life, you know? Can’t sit around cryin’ over spilled milk. Gotta get back up and keep on truckin’.
Kevin Durant’s Basketball Career
And Kevin, well, he’s still playin’ that basketball. He’s real good at it too, from what I hear. Folks say he’s one of the best. Been on them all-star teams and won all sorts of awards. He’s got money, too. Lots of it. But money don’t buy you happiness, that’s for sure. I’ve seen plenty of rich folks who are miserable as sin. And I’ve seen poor folks who are happy as clams. It’s all about what’s in your heart, I reckon.
Final Thoughts
So, that’s the story, as far as I know it. Kevin and Monica, they was a thing, then they wasn’t. It’s a shame, really. They seemed like a nice couple. But hey, that’s life, ain’t it? Full of twists and turns and surprises. You never know what’s gonna happen next. Just gotta keep on livin’ and hopin’ for the best. And maybe learn how to love someone right, if you get the chance. That’s what I always say.
