@@justvibing2497 I’m not saying it’s easy but 1 in roughly a thousand odds is pretty decent. Of course basketball is heavily skewed by tall kids but it’s still much better than the odds for the general public.
By these odds most Americans should have went to school with someone that went pro. I imagine a lot would depend on facilities and funding, some schools probably churn out pros while most have none.
One thing that isn’t mentioned: not everyone can make a high school football or basketball team (e.g. I’m short AND slow). That means the odds are longer than they appear if you just look at high school athletes.
Don't forget to take into account that basketball starts fewer players per team. The fact that professional teams of every other sport have two to three times more players on their roster than the NBA, adds to the difficulty of "achieving the dream".
Maybe 12 regular guys, 3 on two-way. Out of 12, 10 will be on regular rotations. Hope he makes a video also on how difficult it is to stay even a year on the NBA; accounting injuries. I salute role players for surviving 10+ years.

@@DERRTYCHYBOfully disagree. I’ve trained people first hand who have had 0 talent for their chosen skill. But based off of dedication work ethic and passion alone they were willing to work to any length to get where they wanted to be
No doubt a data dead end, but I'd bet that height at xx age is a critical factor as well. An athlete who is 6ft at 12 years old gets significantly more playing time, opportunities, coaching, etc then a 5ft 2in 12 year old. Even if they both end up 6ft 2in, the kid who was taller sooner has a significant advantage in my mind. I'd imagine it's similar to the January birthday thing as it relates to a Canadians odds of making the NHL. Great video as always!
Not necessarily. Anthony Davis famously got taller in high school and it helped (he developed guard skills before being the size of a center, so now he has both size and agility).
Depends on the timing of when both those players hits 6'2". I'd argue getting the size at the most amateur competitive point being HS/AAU is important for scouts to evaluate talent. There are odd exceptions like Dennis Rodman who was only 5'9" when he graduated HS. Then he got blessed with an amazing growth spurt that got him to 6'7" and showed dominant play for Cook County College basketball. He got the NBA via getting drafted to the 2nd round. But he stayed in the NBA because he was motivated to never go back to where he was before.
"The odds are only against you, if you see It that way" - That is quite a banger. As someone that was pushed towards a sport and was not happy competing, I felt depressed because I have great physical attributes to be a handball pro, but I lacked the competitiveness to do so. I can tell you that I have always played sports for fun, and to be healthy, and I was never interested in being pro, despite being good enough, or having the tools and skills for it. Never felt like the game was rigged, I just enjoyed it. Now I am 31 an not in grate shape, but I still enjoy it, and that is something that nobody was able to take from me.
well bronny james is an awful ball player, not even an athlete yet he is in the NBA thanks to his dad lebron. you can't believe your way into talent that you were supposed to be born with.

I love how every video there’s always a different type of visualization. Your really put care into each video you create and you deserve more views. keep it up man!
This is the most visually stunning of your videos so far, and I'm pretty sure I've watched all of them! The cinematography in this is really impressive and your emotions connected with me and I'm sure several other fellow viewers. Please keep making content like this to inspire us all!
Every word you say sounds so carefully placed and chosen. Just how you say the things you do is really something impressive. Add in the fact that you're also saying incredibly compelling things and it starts to explain why your videos are so transfixing. Finally add to that that you actual verbalizations and rhetoric and audio production are so clean and precise, and it's beyond impressive.

It's so refreshing to listen to someone who uses their words as such precision tools.
The quality of your videos is insane. I thought I was watching a sports video and got a marble rollercoaster. The dedication to your videos is clear. Absolute masterpiece. Keep up the hard work. 10/10
Man I remember seeing your video about the NFL draft, with less then 100 views and thinking "this is some great content, this guy will make it far" and a year later, you have grown substantially and still the quality of your videos is amazing, keep it up!
nytimes did a really good piece on how nike ruined a girl's running career. that video is on youtube. insightful video but i don't blame nike. the goal is to maximize profits. i would not put people over profits when my priority is shareholder equity/growth
As a person who dreamed of making it to the NFL when I was younger I appreciate this video so much. I thought I was going to come on here and just get a bunch of facts and numbers (honestly to help validate what I feel as a failure) but at the end I am comforted with the understanding that it’s ok that this dream didn’t come true. The feeling I feel is one felt by many. And getting to where I did go is still an accomplishment in its own I should be proud of. Great video!
Never seen your channel before. Production quality is insane. As someone who grew up with "old" TH-cam, usually a dude filming on a potato, this is a sight to behold.
this video production is absolutely breathtaking, about halfway through the video i went to look at the viewcount expecting millions and millions of views just for my jaw to drop only seeing 400k. this is a special video and i'll definitely be watching more.
Arguably the best creator (even outside of sports) making content on TH-cam right now. The artistry, filmography, narration, everything just oozes passion and effort. Not surprising that someone that has competed at high level sports (even though maybe not in the NBA) produces this kind of output; it takes a certain kind of person.
If I’m not mistaken, for women in the US I believe the data shows that 1/20 actively registered w USA team handball and play in a club are on the national team. About a third of those registered are on a team. So your chances of going “pro” in the us (only get paid if on national team) are 1/60 as a woman. Many national team players play pro internationally as well and get paid. As for Rugby, it’s harder than THB but also small ish too. I’m on a tier III team that plays regionally and we train up ppl who’ve never played rugby before who come from other sports (me). Most of us, including myself, played some sport in college though so we’re like athletic. There are other teams that play in leagues at a lower level than us, and one level above us before pro. But we do play against a pro club’s development team. And we have a couple former pros with us too who wanted a lower stakes less dangerous environment after they were done w their pro playing. TBH I can easily see someone with an athletic background who dedicates themselves making their way to pro in a few years. There’s a woman in the championship team from WER (women’s pro rugby league in the us) who only started playing in 2020! Niche sports for women are relatively ‘easy’ to go “pro” in which is amazing. I love these opportunities for athletes to push themselves and have a chance of living their life actively w the passion of sports. I’m friends with a girl that made it to the Australian national team for fencing after only fencing for four years! Niche women’s sports are a golden opportunity. And tbh I’m considering training for handball lol I’ve had way too many concussions and need a low(er) concussion niche sport to train in lmao.
You may be one of the most brilliant, sophisticated storytellers I have seen on this platform. The quality is impeccable through and through. Truly grateful that I found this channel during Olympics.
Again, one of the most UNDERRATED sports channels on youtube. Clearly you are a bball guy (mince handles by the way), but the way you started this video re the soccer comparisons, and ended it at the same place, after doing a deep dive into basketball…. Phenomenal
Truly awesome vid, Michael. Love the cinematic approach. Also, wonderful editing. Note: Dont hesitate to add a tiny bit of compression/limiting to your voiceover. If done right, you'll preserve the dynamics in your inflection (which you do a wonderful job at) while smoothing your levels a bit (reducing the peaks and raising the low level audio). Helps to correct for small errors in mic technique/distance. If the compression increases sibilance or exaggerates plosives, you can correct those with notch filters.
You made a good point at the end there. Most children/teens playing sports aren’t striving to go pro so that would increase your odds of making it if you are.
The dedication you have to making solid points, founded in factual data, and representing the facts visually and verbally is pretty remarkable. Maybe a very niche channel to some, but commentary that’s broad if not universal. Just very impressed with your work. Every time.
This needs 100X the number of views. What a video! Super interesting and one of the best edits on all of youtube. Needs a better title. This video is way too good not to be hyped up.
You're one of the best channels on youtube, SO GLAD I found you. I told everyone I know that enjoys sports (mainly basketball) about you, you deserve much much much more.
The amount of Canadian teens who make the NHL holds up to my real world experience as a Canadian from a small town. Even my small town of 10,000 people had a handful of guys who made the league and even more who got drafted but stayed in farm-systems. Every highschool and small town has guys known for making the NHL.
1. This was amazing! Tough work with the marbles. Much respect. 2. THIS is how you tell a story with data. Man amazing analysis, especially the social piece!
Yeah but at the same time it also doesn't take into account how many of those rookies where outsiders, I would guess like around 15to 20% of them are with also take the number a little down from the English boys

One of the best videos i have ever seen on statistics in this platform. Amazing!
These videos are so good. Keep up the great work!
Criminal amount of subs for the quality of the videos, keep it going brother!
I love the way Michael writes the closing paragraphs of these videos. He always finds the poetry within the prose
i was barely paying attention doing other things while this was on but i think im gonna need to stop what im doing and pay full attention to another one of your videos because there is something special
i still can't believe you havent cracked 500k subscribers yet from your first video to this masterpiece has been high quality
Some of your best work visually, this vid is a marvel. Well done
My man wanted to be a baller so bad growing up he made this stunning video just to cope with the loss of that dream.
Definitely subbed this was great.
You dropped this 👑. Seriously love your videos man, keep up the great work!!!
Dude, I’m shocked this isn’t viral. fr about to blow up!!
I don't know if you consider yourself an artist but these videos are so well produced that I at least consider them art
Hearing all the players from across the worlds names via draft, brings tears to my eyes
