may god bless those thats less fortunate.
Or you know, you can stop calling on god and actually do something to help people in this type of situation
Spectra Phantom god bless you
Spectra Phantom if you have a problem with God, you can go deal with it somewhere else and not on a youtube comment
Sylvanius Ross yesss🙏☝🙌🙌☝☝
+Spectra Phantom? what do you do?( Before you come back at me im a volunteer and donate part of my allowance ;) )
I lived in Cockeyville, Md., Delaney High Schools District. This is the school Isiah Lamb attended for however long. Little did I know the learning disabled sister and I would eventually be also homeless. Although we lived in a shelter, much better than what Isiah dealt with, it was truly harrowing. God bless all of them. Greater days are ahead. We are doing much better. Stay positive!
God bless these people and their families. This video made me realize I take too much for granted.
Dylan Brett that's real but even by u careing changes it ur a good person just by careing God bless u and yours brahh

Dylan Brett Spoiler Alert: KD is on the Warriors here in 2017

Acaciastreet facts

Snaggaholic if we were all homeless we would all be humble
yes sir 😔
+Muse Cadde ol shut the fuck ☝
damn bro the struggle is real man i hope he makes it in life
Trey. 323 no you don't
ayoh Billy stfu im not a hater like u
its sad that the people who have amazing personalities are ones who sometimes struggle the most
sometimes it's the struggle that allows you to develop the personality. You are your experiences and what you make of them...
Daniel Perez ; it's the way of this fucked-up world. good is bad bad is good, it's horrible that's why you have to believe in something just to make it through everyday
how can u not like this. this is aspiring
Isaiah look like Jimmy Butler from the bulls
Jahlil Leewilliams he was homeless for a long time too
Al He jimmy Es kicked out from his house by his mom at 13
Jahlil Leewilliams jimmy butler from minnissotta u mean
Jahlil Leewilliams *Timberwolves
Jahlil Leewilliams timber wolves
Coach traveling at 3:08
god bless yall man im going thru that right now
but you got a phone?
JiggerJunkies 361 😂😂 Lord
JiggerJunkies 361 a phone can double as a computer. and these days with everything from shopping to applying for a job is done online. why wouldn't the homeless have a phone?
I feel you
keep pushing through it. You might be a day away from making a better life.
Humbling
Wow, they're so humble. I pray that the Lord blesses these people. It takes a lot of courage to publicly open up like this.
I just feel so bad and I wish I could do something.but I'm just a kid.
Mr. Buckets same here
Mr. Buckets pray for em man
Cameron Giffin praying won't help God is fake. it's all a myth. it's all bout that action. do something to help and that will change the motion of the world.
Eric Phillips you can say whatever you like, but do you have any proof God is fake? I don't think so. Everyone has a belief and no one should be judging and saying "oh God isn't real blah blah..."
Eric Phillips: Prayer isn't always about others, it's about helping yourself. When you hit rock bottom, have nothing , feel like nobody, feel trapped by your situation; then prayer can help you find a way to see things better and give you the energy to survive. Prayer is a self-healing mechanism, not a magical cure-all. If you don't believe, that's fine; but for people in their toughest times, it may be the only way to find a path thru their day. Why try to take that away from someone?
God bless all of them 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I'm so ungrateful.seriously need to revaluate a lot of things
+Victoria Godwin Jesus will forgive you.
Amen.
I hope all these people go pro..they deserve it
just buy him a damn house sports illustrated
They don't want too, they want to keep him on the streets cause it keeps the media filthy rich..
Mr. Perfect Jews are fucking greedy fucks.
Caiden Brister I guarantee you Sports Illustrated helped him out in some way or another and continue to keep in contact with him frequently to check up on him. source: I work at Sports Illustrated...
at least a small condo
Caiden Brister didnt you watch until the end you idiot
This is so humbling
Wow!!!! very heart breaking. boy this brought back some memories.
I've been homeless to and that shit ain't no joke but for 3 years sleeping in a car is ridiculous it's plenty help for a woman with kids to be assisted and the reason I can speak on that particular situation is cause I know. smh
I take so much stuff for granted
What a great piece. It's difficult to truly understand homelessness unless you've been there but I admire these children's positivity and their mother's perseverance.
it is a struggle...
keep praying & stay focused!!!!
please stay focused!
I just cracked when he was so happy and proud of their appartment. Such an inspiration. You go boy and change the world!
this made me appreciate what I have
i lived in a car with my mom and i'm fortunate enough my uncle took me in but my mom still lives in a wal mart parking lot. i know that struggle and it truly sucks. i got good grades and received a football scholarship now i'll be leaving off to college in august. im thankful for my coaches, school administration, teachers, brothers & sisters, and my mom.
It's great to hear that you got that scholarship. Good luck in the future and hopefully you can support your mom and yourself.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 They will be in my prayers.
these truly are great kids. All the best wishes for thier future endeavors
This is why #Ballislife🏀🏀🏀
God has really blessed this family .One thing you have to remember during these times is there is always something 10x worst than what you are going through. So just think this could be worse after that you will get more and more positive and life will lighten up. But you have to always give glory to GOD
I wish them all success especially the young lady. She got a full plate ahead of her trying to raise a kid with no help, play ball, and go to school.
i can feel the pain in the mother's voice, man. Makes me realize how much i take for granted everything im given. This is heart breaking :(
God bless the ones in the struggle
It's insane how much these kids have been through and how they are still able to stay positive and humble through out
He went to my school he plays at padonia sometimes. Wow issah
This is such a sad story! But a story of strength and endurance, commitment and love. I work with this young man's mom and never knew that the family was going through this rough time. Since this went public it broke my heart to know the struggles the three of them go through. So proud of the parents for keeping it together and showing their son what strength , love and God can do for you. All of you need not be ashamed of anything. Be PROUD of yourselves, hold your head high and keep your faith. Faith and family can cure all! Can't wait to see you continue your journey to the NBA. Prayers to all of you. Thank you Sports Illustrated for doing this story.
God bless all of these people. 🙏🏽😔
These students and teenagers are strong. It takes mental strength to go through these things and come up in life. They have alot of will to keep going no matter what happens.
4:29 broke my spirit....damn mama. Keep strong. Cole world, no blanket!
This makes you realize at least you have a bed and other basic things you take for granted
Az cardinalds Sure does..
This makes you be grateful for what you have there's always someone who has it worse than you
God bless man. Inspirational.
Keep pushing forward. Hard work & determination.
Man this left me in tears and wondering what is my excuse?...
I have so much to be thankful for god bless all of you
I even played basketball with Isaiah on the blacktop before, I never knew what he could've been going through
God bless this child
This was a good watch and open my eyes more and showed me that you don't always need money and nice things to be happy but a good family and support group will always keep you rich in heart
Man very inspiring video man May God continue to bless you y'all hope to see youse in the future 🙏🏼
I wanna see this kid go pro get titles and support his mom because this kid is a good kid and ball player. He deserves the best
This video is so sad, I just feel bad on how much I have, and how much they don't have.
God bless! You have people praying for you.
god bless him and be grateful for Wat you got
Shanicka Turner Amen!!
I feel so bad for this girl and the two boys. He's very gifted in basketball.
God Bless man
The important thing about the story is they showed their names, faces, and content of where they live, etc. They also describe their story and background.
We take for granted what we have. Realizing the plights and strifes that people endure , helps us realize and discern that life is meritorious, regardless of what commodities you possess. The fact that we have a space to live, a car, if that fortunate, and a supporting household, you are indeed lucky and should be grateful for what you have. Some, if not most, of us can't fathom or fancy a life without he amenities we don't appreciate. We regard them as being obscure parts of our daily regimen, yet need to recognize that they may be something others may never have
God bless you young buc 💯
Thx for bringing it to my attention
damn man you just never know what people are going through, i need to humble myself..
I want to give all my heart for those that are In need
Got to stop cutting onions and watching these shows as the same time
watching stuff like this makes me wanna play hard wen I play basketball n football
Isiah plays for marist in baltimore which is a d1 school hes averaging 6.5 points and 3 reb a game as a sophmore after averaging 7 as a freshman dude is out here working i hope him nothing but the best
God bless them The Mom’s awesome
For the 39 people who disliked there're just cold hearted and have nothing better to do.
God bless him
God bless them I hope they make it❤️
I wish them best of luck God help them even if I become homeless
I sister is a social worker and she had a family that came to them from another state. They had a 14 year old son he was depressed about moving he just started high school and wanted to play football. I coached high school football so she reached out to me. She what I just typed is what she told me so I came to invite the kid to come with me to some of our practices I was just trying to make him feel better when I saw this kid he's a massive 14 year 6'3 185. Long story short he plays for my team now. He getting d1 looks the part that's ridiculous is the NCAA wants to make sure he didn't get any special treatment. Which is BS and this kind of things happen all the time you help a kid and a family struggling and they look at us like we have bad intentions. I didn't know this kid was going to be hell when my sister told me about him she didn't say anything about his size just that he loves football and he was having a hard time with the situation.
Man I think I'm so sav and tough but I was crying after 1 minute
meanwhile were on Instagram being jealous of other people fake stunting with fake shit ..... we can do better . God Bless these youngsters.
Isiah Lamb should at least be able to get on the D-League, best of luck to him and the others!
Hopefully this kid makes it out I'm rooting for him. After college his coach is right he has plenty of options he could go to the d league, overseas , hey maybe he could breakout in college and get drafted into the NBA or get picked up by a team. As long as this kid makes it out and provides for his family he's good
Respect
How are all of these athletes doing now?
Drew Pierce they are all in college
Salute Bredrin! I wish I would've known - Stay hungry lil homey and keep honoring your mom - JCC 4 LIFE!
I feel confident saying that these kids will very financially stable as adults.
This is why premarital sex is prohibited in most religions. Careless mothers and fathers don't take the consequences of their actions into consideration, and it's their children who have to pay when they're abandoned. No child should have to endure the struggles of abandonment. This is the problem with America. When one loses their fundamental morals, they begin to think only of themselves and their personal gain. With the incline of Atheism, more and more naive, innocent children lose their only source of comfort and resources because their cruel parents could care less about their empty stomachs and hopeless minds.
Trivalario what you a Norman
God bless all . I used to be homeless its NO FUN .
I am a single mom tire to get food for my son job don't pay same bodies help me God bless you all
+Maxine Joseph May the Lord Jesus show you the way... like he did for ME.

I was one of these kids and I wasn't strong enough mentally to overcome.... Im still struggling and Im now 44.. Wasted talent!
This inspired me, and i have basket goals 2
How is the government not helping the homeless youth and their families?? This country is just so messed up
DAMN Isaiah reminds me of my lil homie from St.Louis Ben McLemore(Memphis Grizzlies)...They resemble each other & got similar stories...Wow

At least these athletes were good. Imagine the ones who arent good.
If you dislike this you have no heart

Maybe it's someone who is homeless but without any athletic talent watching this video from the public library.
