By devon-newport | Dec 15, 2015 01:50 PM EST

For star high school football players, announcing their decision on where they'll be playing their collegiate football is a big deal. It can be a lavish production, even. Take Daelin Hayes, for example. The 4-star recruit from Ann Arbor (Michigan) Skyline High School had narrowed down his list to just three schools: Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Michigan State.

On Wednesday, he made someone fall to the floor again. This time, however, no ankles were harmed in the process. Durant presented $35,000 to Positive Tomorrows in Oklahoma City, an elementary school serving homeless children, and one particular kid was just too darn excited. Read More »
