Been watching your stuff for awhile, but this one did it for me. Dion Waiters telling a journalist recently that Syracuse should have won the NCAA Championship that year reopened a lot of questions. One of those is what really happened to Fab Melo. Thanks for this, and you earned a sub for life. 🏀🏆
As a Brazilian Celtics fan I was really excited when we got him back in 2012 even though I knew he wasn't ready. RIP Fab to come from where you came and to make it to the league just show that you were truly a winner.
Can you do a video on Winfred walton? He was a McDonald’s all American 1996 mr basketball in Michigan. My mother briefly dated him in the early 2000s I would love to hear how someone who was one of the top recruits ended up only playing 1 season of college basketball and never make the nba. I know what happened first hand from him but I think it’s a story others need to hear as well especially since he was a Syracuse recruit.
Great video. As a Celtics fan I remember this guy. Was very excited about this draft we need to get young legs to rest KG and Pierce, and Melo was a body who we could use with lots of upside. But we wasn't ready unfortunately. Sullinger was a beast thought, a shame we fell off with his weight problems. RIP to him, always sad seeing a fellow language speaker passing
Its hard when you're pushed through and can't develop your skills. It applies to anything in life. But its all about now no matter how far along you're developed not just in sports but regular jobs too.
Lifelong Syracuse fan who lived in South Florida when he was in High School and College. I always rooted for the kid and wish he would have been available for that potential championship run. RIP Fab.
I forgot that he passed away. He's a guy that I think could have really done well with the Spurs. He had minor focus issues on the court but a good coach could have pretty much got rid of that
I remember him passing, but I’m not gonna lie: “he went to sleep for the last time” really messed me up. Good memories of his college career, RIP Fab 🙏🏾
As a cuse fan i really miss this man and if the NCCA communitee haven't suspended him in 2012 for us i wouldve love to be in the final four that year and i wish he in the nba theses days rest up big fella
Yo brother stunted growth can u do video on high-school home the UMass all Atlantic 10 great Mike uzi Williams Hartford conn legend may he he rest in power
Very good profile. Everyone involved should be ashamed of how they failed this kid. And Jim Bohiem is one of the most disgraceful stories in college basketball. This man broke so many rules yet they let him stay around for over 40 years basically unscathed. And this is coming from a diehard Syracuse fan.
Lowkey the part you not talking bout is that a lot of players don’t become “superstars “ because they don’t completely sell their souls an do the rituals asked if them 🤷🏾♂️
His father died from a heart attack, so it coulda been an issue he had or drugs…you never know, but if your family has something always get checked out for it just in case
We're almost there! We deserve it. Still grinding trying to get to as much of you as possible. Appreciate each of you. R.I.P Melo
@stuntedgrowth Darius Miles

How about 2008 #14 pick Anthony Randolph.

Right!? Holy sh*t😢 I remember that short time period where his draft stock was at its highest peak, talks of being a lottery pick, possibly top 10
This was a very sad SG,26 yrs old is so-YOUNG-to pass. RIP: MELO. At least you made theLEAGUE.

Damn bro. RIP to Fab. Jahlil Okafor is another 1 I thought would have had a brighter career
