Away from his career as a basketball player, Harrell is a loving family man of whom he proudly talks about and shows off on Instagram.

In March, the proud father also shared a birthday post in honor of his son whom he described as a blessing. The post featured a series of pictures as well as a heartwarming note.

With Harrell's skills and achievement, he grows more popular by the day, but fame has never stopped him from acknowledging the love he has for his family.

Harrell continues to love and honor his late grandmother in the best ways that he can.

During an interview with Forbes last December, Harrell admitted that his family sacrificed a lot for him to get into the NBA.

As a show of appreciation, the athlete noted that every game gave him an opportunity to provide for them, which was enough inspiration.

With his dedication to his family, it, therefore, came as no surprise that when his grandmother passed away earlier this year, Harrell was heartbroken.

Following her passing, Harrell's team, the Los Angeles Clippers gave him time off to grieve the heartbreaking loss of his grandma.

However, he soon returned to play and revealed how his grandmother had inspired his love for basketball. According to him, the elderly lady always bought him basketball hoops even after destroying them several times.

For him, these memories are his favorite and he would carry them in his heart for a lifetime. While he might still feel the pain in his heart, Harrell continues to love and honor his late grandmother in the best ways that he can.
