Former Wisconsin basketball star Nigel Hayes paid off his parents’ mortgage, and the video will warm your heart.
In a video tweeted by his mother Talaya Davis, her and his stepfather Albert Davis read a letter from the Zalgiris Kaunas forward informing them that the mortgage had been taken care of for them. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

I don’t care who you cheer for in sports, this video is awesome. Whether you’re a Wisconsin fan or not, this is just an awesome moment.
I also love his mother saying she’s going to “beat his ass” for paying off her mortgage. That woman has a lot of pride and she clearly raised one hell of a great son.
You can read the full letter from Nigel to his parents below.
Thank You Nigel!
You never cease to amaze us.
We love you!????
No child was harmed after this video…but there may be a situation when he comes home. ????

With all the nonsense we have to deal with in this world, it sure is nice to see something great happen. Nigel Hayes paying off his parents’ mortgage is a great reminder of how much awesomeness is left in the world.
Nigel Hayes just paid off the mortgage for his parents house here in Toledo. Watch this & try not to cry. Dare you. This is amazing. https://t.co/B53OO1QrX0
