    My first attempt at a somewhat longer video than normal. I learned a lot making it. Definitely have respect for YouTubers who constantly churn these out. Hope you enjoy.

    wishing a HEALTHY career to this kid it's a good thing he got to Spurs with Pop. Even with losing, he'll learn a lot from him instead of getting high numbers on a bad team with losing culture.

    So Wemby's highest scoring ball thrown to fan in crowd, fined 25K, took ball from kid so wemby invites him to next game where its his last rookie game and its against the former champs and he reverses momentum overcomes the joker and spurs win it and gives the kid that ball dude is one HECK of a class act. love this kid more and more with everything i learn about him. epic to witness
  • Broooooo this has to be one of if not the best videos you’ve made to date!!! The way you were able to perfectly capture Wemby’s rookie season. I’m so hyped right now!! 🔥🔥🔥
  • @uze3000
    I think you should continue these type of videos, definitely one of my favorites.

    This guy will be the next best generational talent. The fact he has the skillset and handles of a guard for a 7’4 guy is extremely impressive. Wemby will be an all time legend by the end of his time. I immediately became a fan of him after this year.
  • @siphillis
    Honestly unbelievable when you look back at it in retrospect. Impossible hype, set up to fail, and Victor still succeeded.
  • 14:22 If this is true, Wemby is legitimately the nicest dude out there. Giving another game ball, hell, an even more important game ball, to that kid because of the officials taking the last one is truly class on Wemby's part. I love Wemby's character as much as I love his ball. GO SPURS!
  • @j.c.rodsil
    Im from Brasil and became a Spurs fan because of Wemby, i cannot put in words how excited i am to watch him play in the next years.
  • @oladipupoajani
    Where are all the haters from Wembys first summer leauge game, people thought he was a bust after 1 summer leauge game well jokes on them.
  • @brodesto22
    Wemby missing DPOY will be looked back upon like Curry missing FMVP in 2015
  • @slto91
    love that inside story with the high school fan. very compelling storytelling, great job man
  • @yansefy7287
    If this dude stays consistent and healthy he might have the potential to be a GOAT.
  • @Reyter
    one of his best traits, is he isnt afraid of anything, reminds me a lil bit of mike and kobe
  • @Iso_SSB
    love this new longer style content you tried in this video. Definetly felt refreshing watching this from you, good stuff
  • @ThatsPety
    Great video. Sometimes, years later, fans and media try to rewrite history because they dont remember all the nuance that was present in the moment. Thats why I like videos like this that show all the ups and downs over the course of the season, it makes a lot of stuff make a lot more sense when looking back
  • @dutdut6662
    I love the story with Wemby and the high school kid. The dude just looks like he manifests wins at times, its like looking at a superhero, but as a rookie 👀 Great job on the vid!
  • @allsports2834
