Gary Payton II promised his mother he would one day earn his degree from Oregon State, and he followed through with that.
SAN FRANCISCO -- Gary Payton II beamed as he shared the special news: He's now a college graduate.
Monique Payton returned to Payton's home from getting coffee when he asked her please not to spill. She looked down and there was the diploma for her son's degree in human development and family science. She did have a little bit of warning this was in the works. Payton had sent his mom a text message with a photo of the paper a couple of weeks ago.
For Payton to pull this off now, through such a challenging season, meant so much. He helped the Warriors win a championship last season as a defensive stopper then joined the Portland Trail Blazers last July, only to get traded back to Golden State. He then sat out recovering from an injury associated with his offseason core muscle surgery."It's really for mom," Payton said after going through his warmups at Chase Center.
