He's a good kid
To this day, when Keljin Blevins takes the basketball court, he envisions his father sitting in the stands.
Before each game, Blevins says a prayer, holding an intimate conversation with the late James Blevins.
And every time he competes for the Montana State Bobcats, Blevins is striving to make his father proud.
“There’s no bigger motivation than what happened to my dad,” Blevins said. “He was my No. 1 fan, never missed a game, was always in the crowd. To this day, I think of him sitting up there and I imagine what he would think. Every day, I want to make him proud.
“He will forever be my biggest motivation, whether that’s in basketball or anything else in life.”
When Blevins was in the middle of his first season playing at Southern Miss, his father died suddenly. A heart attack killed James Blevins completely unexpectedly. He was 45.
