Question

Professional basketball player Kevin Durant may be fit, but he admits that he loves fast food. Now, Durant is making changes to improve the way he eats. He is also sharing that message with students. During a visit to a middle school, Durant said that he is trying to break his fast food habit. He is eating salads as a more healthful choice. Durant also stresses exercise.

As a middle school student, he often played outside for exercise.
