Why Kevin Durant's camp means so much to a Kansas City mom and her daughter

Lilly Reynolds goes to school with a bunch of kids who are fans of the Royals and the Chiefs.

She lives in Kansas City, Mo., after all.

But Lilly is a Thunder fan. Watches every game she can. Loves Kevin Durant more than anything. Proudly wears No. 35 for her elementary school basketball team.

She is unlike the rest of the kids.

Then again, that has always been the case.

Lilly was born while her mom was taking chemotherapy. Rare is the pregnancy that is successful when the mother has cancer and is undergoing treatment.
