With athletes making extravagant amounts of money, spending their earnings to give back to their parents becomes a common occurrence.

Earlier this month, Colorado football star Travis Hunter used his NIL earnings to buy his mother her dream home in Savannah, Georgia. Hunter posted a video on his YouTube channel, showing his mother’s reaction as she was gifted a five-bedroom 2.5 bathroom home.

The 20-year-old also bought his fiancé a car and presented her with a diamond engagement ring that the couple shared online last month.

Before Hunter gave back to his mother, several athletes shared their abundance with their loved ones in more ways than one.

Here, DailyMail.com recounts how stars in different sports generously spent their earnings for their families.

Travis Kelce buys $1million Super Bowl suite in Vegas

While plenty wished to be at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas in February, Travis Kelce’s $1million suite was the place to be in the venue.

As the Kansas City Chiefs took on the San Francisco 49ers for the coveted Lombardi trophy, the tight end spent seven figures to make sure his family and girlfriend, Taylor Swift, had the best seats in the house.

Sources told TMZ that Kelce paid for the pricey suite at Allegiant Stadium. When Super Bowl Sunday rolled around, his mom Donna, dad Ed, brother Jason, sister-in-law Kylie, Swift, and several A-listers enjoyed the fruits of his labor as he and the Chiefs secured their third title in five years.

I’m not really doing much different other than just counting how much money I’m spending on this damn Super Bowl for family and friends to come,’ Kelce said on the New Heights podcast ahead of the game. ‘Just making sure I’m on top of those finances and losing all this money.’

Celebrities such as Blake Lively, Ice Spice, Lana Del Rey, Quavo, Paul McCarthy, and Miles Teller all graced the star-filled suite as the Chiefs and 49ers played a dramatic game that’s destined for the storybooks.

Shaquille O’Neal buys his mother Louis Vuitton purses

Fans can thank Shaquille O’Neal’s mother, Lucille, for his dominance on the court.

Dr. Shaq won four NBA titles and three finals MVPs over his Hall-of-Fame career. But despite winning all of the hardware and making roughly $292m in salary alone, O’Neal stated that his goal was to give back to his mother.

The NBA legend previously shared how his mother not being the biggest fan of designer accessories did not stop him from buying her not one but two Louis Vuitton purses on her birthday.

‘It was my mom’s birthday, and she don’t even like Louis purses,’ O’Neal told Patrick Bet-David in 2022. ‘I say ‘Come, let’s take a ride.’ And you know the bag [cost] two thousand. ‘No baby, don’t buy that.’ ‘Get two of them, Mom.’ That right there is what being wealthy and successful is to me.’
