Celebrated
Hollywood
actress
Katie
Holmes
reveals
that
she
is
an
ardent
fan
of
games
and
sports
and
particularly
basketball.
The
actress
also
stated
that
she
hails
from
a
big
basketball
family.
"I'm
a
big
basketball
fan,
I
come
from
a
big
basketball
family," she
explained.
"My
dad
played
at
Marquette
under
Al
McGuire,
so
everyone
is,
like,
very
good
in
my
family
except
for
me.
But
we
were
just
at
the
NCAA
this
weekend
at
MSG
and
it
was
incredible.
We
watched
the
South
Carolina-Florida
game,
and
the
Florida-Wisconsin
game
...
oh
my
God!"
Holmes
said
that
she
is
also
a
bit
superstitious
about
her
favourite
games
and
she
does
often
pray
and
perform
rituals
ahead
of
the
start
of
the
games.
"I'm
a
very
intense
fan
no
matter
what,
because
I'm
the
youngest
of
five,
so
I
used
to
go
to
all
my
brothers
and
sisters' games
when
I
was
little,
so
...
I
pray
I
do
rituals,"
she
said.
"And
my
nephew
was
on
a
great
basketball
team
this
year,
and
I
would
listen
on
the
radio
and
I
would
have
to,
you
know,
run
on
the
treadmill
because
I
would
be
so,
like,
'Oh
my
God,
oh
my
God!
It's
two
minutes
left!
Oh
my
God!'
you
know?"
Holmes
stated
further.
