Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Kevin Durant is definitely on Santa's 'Nice' list this Christmas after he came to the aid of a poor young man who was robbed for his shoes.
13 year old Anthony Cupp was mugged while walking home in Detroit wearing a new pair of Kevin Durant's signature KD shoes, which Cupp had saved up to buy, when he was jumped by an older kid who stole the valuable sneakers.
The Detroit Pistons got wind of the story on twitter and contacted the Oklahoma City Thunder ahead of their match in Detroit last night, and Durant was happy to help cheer Anthony up by decking him out head to toe in KD gear and meeting him in person to give him an autographed pair of shoes.

Its great to see such a huge sports star help a kid turn what was probably a very traumatic event into a positive memory that he can look back on for a lifetime.
