john walls story is rlly sad. he wasn’t trying to be rude and have a bad attitude, he grew up in a hard family. he was just trying to be tuff for his family. edit: so is caleb’s 💛💛

Why do they censor the word drugs? That doesn't fix things and only adds a layer or mystique to drug culture that makes it more appealing to kids and young adults. Being open and honest about what drugs do to people is the best way to handle it and this video doesn't do anything to make drugs look appealing.
Jeremy Lin: I think I’m like Steve Nash, we both aren’t freak athletes but we play good. Also Jeremy: I gained 15 pounds of muscle and tripled all my workouts AND made my vertical higher 3.5 inches
how is steph currys story more aganst all odds than john wall, jimmy butler, lebron, damian lillard, demar derozan, and isaiah thomas. The only sentence that made stephs story against all odds was that he was "to small"
One he is not ranked as stated and two, you are largely comparing physically gifted but impoverished people with an undersized player who had to struggle to get into college and was only a 3 star pick. Granted he had a strong family support system and an NBA Dad to coach him. Steph was still 5 foot odd in his junior year. All of them required some luck and determination. I find it all inspiring but comments like this are just petty. Why bring him up?
Cuss he has the physical talent of a Twinkie and he became the best player (arguably) in the league. A league dominated by physical freaks. Lots of other people have the same advantages as curry and end up not doing shit and being terrible people. Curry had 2 advantages.. well off family and nba pedigree from his father... but physically he had none of the natural gifts any other guy on that list had. Even Isaiah Thomas was a great athlete just small.
Dwayne's story is pretty crazy and since he's retiring I was so sad to see him go I remember the days of Wade and James be called the #1 team in the league at the time
i enjoyed both honestly and all the stories the players legit went against all odds to get better i respected every single one before but even more now than i did before
John wall sliped at home and had another injury we wont see him until almost 2 years but i thought he was getting injured on purpose i wish him his best i hope he comes back strong 💪
Youtbe is legit tweeking bro. When I was scrolling through the comments yours popped up as a reply to me 😯😂 I had to click on your comment to read it. I hope John comes back looking like Paul George after he got injured 🏀
This dude knows the most basic of nba knowledge, doesn't watch any games (assuming this as he knows nothing about most nba players) and gets literally all of his info for his vids from wikipedia, I could shit out a better video than this guy
*you forgot that John Wall's dad served time in prison before John's birth for murder.* *which John Wall only found out when a reporter told him in an interview*
Steven Adams, youngest of 18 kids, didn’t really know his mother, father died when he was 13, hung out with the most infamous and brutal gang in all of New Zealand, started basketball at 13 in 2006, won a title and rookie of the year in New Zealand’s national basketball league in 2011, 1 D1 offer
well its still very unlikely for him to have made it to the NBA because he started playing basketball at the age of 15 and was really bad when he started
Yeah, I saw someone struggling and gave the dude a few dollars. Next thing I knew, two undercovers had me search because they claimed they saw me dealing (cop scare tactics). Ain't never gonna acknowledge any one who looks dodgy. As far as I'm concern, they don't exist....
@@2ezbreezy197 I think they don't give out athletic scholarships at all, but they starting recently not giving out any scholarships to asian people at all.
John wall had the worst childhood and unlikely success story to the NBA. I won't judge wall as i once did before. new found respect for Joel embiid. Wade, Damian,wall's story is typical of black people's childhood. Goes to show how racism from white people effects out lives. Being blessed with height and a gift to play basketball is a lot of poor, oppressed, disadvantaged black children's way out in America It's a shame that their chances are slim to none to get to the NBA. If you're not over 6'3 and up, chances are slim to none. after 6'4 and up, chances improve. 6'6 you're about 50/50 6'9 and up, you're a sure shot to be in the NBA.
videogameboutique thats BS. How does racism fit anywhere near wall and wades stories? Ones father was a criminal and the others mom was a drug addict. Stop race baiting
I hope John can pull through his injury and have a great comeback season
He season over the injury was severe
kassabi 101 I know I mean like sometime next year cuz I think he can come back in the middle of the 2019-20 season
Ah
His elite speed and athleticism probably won’t be where it was so he’ll need to really hammer his jumper while he sits out next year
@@dwadeisthegoat2020 he will probably miss all of 2019 too

Omg JOHN WALL WTF I’m literally crying g😭 that’s crazy i feel for him and his family..
@Jennifer Bruce so are you
Lol John Wall a savage eating snacks on the end of the bench 😂
He eats potato chips by the bag now and has gained 80lbs since he got injured.
He had a hard life. Stfu
I also eat snacks

Thank RUclips for prioritizing the needs of advertisers rather than its users
i thought it was sex because then he said they had 6 kids
You do know pierce got stabbed 8 times. And AIs backstory is self explanatory
And he played all 82 games that season
11 times
Koh Smoger no he didn't he got stabbed 11 times
He was already a player. Not a backstory.
Nico Real The title states against all odds. This qualifies
Pascal Siakam should got Nº1 to he got almost the same path to the nba
These stories hit the bottom of my heart and inspired me 🙏 respect
I'm not even a Knicks fan but I'm mad that linsanity had to end
Yeah melo ruined it
Yeah it's sad0

Joel Embiid be crying wow and now he is like the toughest players who doesn't care about others

I love these Videos you should do a part 3
Came here to say RIP Caleb Swanigan 1997-2022 🪦
Was waiting on this part two🙌🏽
Huge respect to all of them 👏🏽
Man love these stories
12:10 "Mr. steal yo girl himself" LMFAO
Respect to all these Legends
That’s insane. I’ve always disliked John Wall but this changes everything.
How do you dislike someone you don't know 🤨
these where sad but the video was good i have seen a lot of your videos i am a subscriber and i think this is one of your best videos
On John walls quote you misspelled better but you good homie I love your videos
John Wall has gone through soo much, but people still find a way to crack jokes and shit about him, like that doesn’t just make it worse
his mum has cancer 2
Dwayne's story is pretty crazy and since he's retiring I was so sad to see him go I remember the days of Wade and James be called the #1 team in the league at the time
Wall's father: *dies*
Wall: Oh no!
Life: BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!
Lol
Please make more videos like this,because this videos will be my inspiration for my dream
I respect D-Wade so much.
Same.
Keep grinding austin
Man, it's sad to see lots of these black players being raised without a father.
Both were amazing good videos you got there
John Wall has the most inspiring story I’ve ever seen
These were tear jerking stories.
I came back to walls after his mother passed away
RIP
i enjoyed both honestly and all the stories the players legit went against all odds to get better i respected every single one before but even more now than i did before
Can u bring back the “where is he know” series?
Yes thank you for including Swanigan 😀
If you make a part 3 include kris Dunn, Mirza Teletovic, Bernard King, and Darius Miles
Bernard king had a sad story before the nba ?
The Joker
I know none of them
Except Kris dunn
Heavy Andy Hoops lool.
jimmy is the one, his story is more than inspirational, it is touching
John wall sliped at home and had another injury we wont see him until almost 2 years but i thought he was getting injured on purpose i wish him his best i hope he comes back strong 💪

Great vid bro been watching since day 1

When I react to Dwayne Wade and John Wall I think how did they survive
Steven Adams, youngest of 18 kids, didn’t really know his mother, father died when he was 13, hung out with the most infamous and brutal gang in all of New Zealand, started basketball at 13 in 2006, won a title and rookie of the year in New Zealand’s national basketball league in 2011, 1 D1 offer
Joel came from a wealthy family in Africa
well its still very unlikely for him to have made it to the NBA because he started playing basketball at the age of 15 and was really bad when he started
@Patrick Mattern you play mobile games fuck outa my mentions
Ohhhhhhhh😂😂😂😂😝😝😝
This is motivating the hell out of me
Last video in part 1 you said Dame might be a top 5 or 6 point guard. I think Dame is a top 3 point guard, and a top 10 player.
Fantastic!!!
If you see someone struggling you should give them kindness because these people were going to become like druggies now they're millionairs.
Yeah, I saw someone struggling and gave the dude a few dollars. Next thing I knew, two undercovers had me search because they claimed they saw me dealing (cop scare tactics). Ain't never gonna acknowledge any one who looks dodgy. As far as I'm concern, they don't exist....
Great job !
What about Kris Dunn he was poor and had to gamble for money
Alvina Saterfield gotta understand only ten spots but more bad stories.
Had to?
Ansh Shah Kris dunn should easily be on this list instead of curry
Great video bro
3:30 who noticed he spelled better wrong 😂 lol
If you can find more stories plz do a part 3
rip caleb
My two most favorite players both had insanely sad and hard stories. Jimmy Butler and Damian Lillard
You should do part 3 and add Shane Battier, Steven adams, Serge ibaka, Gordon hayward, LeBron James, and James Harden
I enjoyed both videos
He just censored the word drugs. Bruh
Edit: he did it thrice
So excited for this
Austin sweat. Amazing hoops genius, funny, would love to talk basketball with you. 🏀
he has no clue what hes talking about most of the time, this is a guy that gets all his knowledge from 2k
