No high school ball, no college ball, still made the Globetrotters...this man accomplished what was once my dream 😅 kudos Wham, great story and such an inspiration!
After his game of hoops with a friend of his mum's he got a trial with the Harlem Globetrotters and now has 9 world records. Kind of how I became a doctor, my friend had a sore throat so I made him some lemon juice to soothe his sore throat then he said I should sit the medical boards exam, 2 days later I was doing heart surgery in Boston. Hustle culture, work hard, achieve your dreams!
I love this dude. My Uncle worked for the globetrotters in the 70's/80's you know back in the day and I grew up on those guys really many different generations of globetrotters at this point. I think we still have all the memorabilia like the coffee mugs and ashtrays all kinds of stuff. Anyway as a hooper myself...much respect and I love what he said about basically being a good person and putting in the work for yourself and others before you do it for the recognition and limelight. 👍🏽
I played video on low speed. I counted a turbo second with 15 bounces 😳 but he bounced the ball with both hands and it only got off ground by a few millimeters. So it's not as impossible as it sounds
What a nice young man, so humbled and appreciative. The best for him. I remember some years back while working security at O'Hare airport and I ran into Curly from the Harlem Globetrotters and waved at him, and he took out his basketball to sign and going to give it to me, but his flight was called for him to board and he had to go, I was that close to getting a signed Globetrotters basketball. Darn it!!. RIP Curly
At work and i unexpectly shed a tear when i saw him get emotional , dont know him from a nothing , but the energy he gives off makes you want to root for him , I wish him nothing but success and happiness . Keep moving forward
I love stories of young men being positive and hopefully others following in their footsteps.... I'll be 63 in July my friend I'm proud of you. Keep your head up be a leader and don't be a follower. Peace my young man
I have had the good fortune to see that young man and the Globe Trotters play and I truly enjoyed myself. Amazing young athletes carrying on the wonderful Globe Trotter traditions!
valuable lesson. talent without hard work gets you nowhere. this guy put in the work and achieved what he wanted to. talent may sometimes get you to the top, but only hard work will keep you there.
People don't understand what it takes to be a Globetrotters. Besides the insane skill, you gotta have have an insane high EQ to entertain the crowd as well.
Really cool guy. I remember seeing them play several times as a kid awesome experience. How is it possible this cat didnt play ball in hs or whatever. Insane to think what kind of unknowing talent may just be out there in the world. Sometimes ppl just need alittle light to shine themselves
I saw harlem globetrotters when I was a kid a few times in Philly back when it was the wachovia center and even when the vet stadium was still around. This young man got skills and has mad skills! Makes me want to watch the globetrotters again
Congratulations.. wham! Nice to see an SSU Tiger setting records! We saw you guys this week for the first time in Savannah on my bday, we had a great time.
@@anthonytaylor7928 true but making halfcourt shots or behind the back shots with thousands of people watching live is pretty hard. That's what I meant not pressure from the other team.
@@anthonytaylor7928 the pressure is in the trick shots. In front of people that paid to watch you do something thats supposed to impress them. I also imagine putting on any show for a paying crowd would have pressure, even theater. Jus sayin
If I said "THAT'S IMPRESSIVE," I would have the Guinness World Record for the greatest UNDERSTATEMENT of all time. Seriously, you are an amazing young man with an AMAZINGLY inspirational testimony for others to emulate. CONGRATULATIONS.
Nice to see. Interesting to see how long it took to break my world record. I broke 11 world records in 4 sports: darts, basketball, football and freestyle football. Nice to see that my record stoot so long. Congrats once again.
CONGRATULATIONS! That's pretty AWESOME! If you're interested in looking into a possible 10th record doing a trick shot I used to do when I was younger that I've never seen anyone else complete contact me! Again... Awesome job young man!!!
@@epicprod6235 lmao I remember that and the part where the ref took off his shirt and went to the opposing team and started playing for them, no wonder why he was calling false calls against the harlem globetrotters
Glad to see Thunder still there! Got to meet him overseas when I interned at AFN Radio in Spangdahlem, Germany back about 9 years ago. Super cool dude!
I'm sure I'm repeating what others have said, but I really enjoy these type of stories. His mother noticed something about her son, asked her boyfriend to look into it and the young man gets a try out with the Harlem Globe Trotters. The he puts in the work and earns several World Records - WOW.
Love how we're starting to see more people making a living off of Basketball in ways other than the NBA, because for us ppl of normal height that can ball, NBA is SO hard to get to. (Not that Globetrotters are new) we need more leagues tho, because there's alot of good ballers who don't get a chance because of their height. ☝🏻🙄
@@renataylor218 There's SO many people in this world. Making it into the NBA is extremely difficult, and unfortunately height get a lot of people overlooked. That's freakin awesome u were able to go ball in Germany tho! I'd love to have done that
@@blAZinSports4k yes it is difficult. I had a good agent & he also played in the NBA. I met him at IHOP lol. Networking is key. I wanted to join the globetrotters in the past. Now I’m coaching & training boys & girls basketball.
@@renataylor218 that's awesome!😁👍🏻 I've actually thought about doing that same thing! I'm 36 now, obviously my time has passed, but I wanna pass my knowledge on, no kids of my own LoL

I was watching this video, and my family joined me and my neighbor also came over we watched all together, and we were so excited, and everyone said that this has changed their lives.
This is endurance and speed. Think about running a mile; it doesn't mean you're the fastest runner. Not sure if it makes him the fastest dribbler in the world, but we'll give it to him. He deserves the title! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I was just at the Calgary 2024 tour and was not disappointed. We spent the extra for the magic pass so my son could get their autographs. Such a fun time, my son is absolutely hooked! Thank you!🙏
Wham's mental game is his game; the rest is just sweat, determination and physics. You're incredible, young man. I hope your life is profoundly rewarding outside of basketball, too. Thank your mum the pro scout for me, will ya? She's got skills. You're pretty good also ;-)
There are those who make it their business to play professional basketball(G League/NBA) but fail miserably in the process. And, then, there are those, according to the world, who have no business playing basketball, yet, the gift of playing was given to them without measure. This brother was one of those men ! Congratulations and may you have many more blessings in the world of basketball and off the court as well...😁
"It's what you do when nobody is looking." That's what it means to have integrity. It's a commitment you make with yourself.

Yo girl said the same. I forgot her ig tho. Can I have it?
I agree 💯 👊🏿

It can't be, but if it is wow. Im stunned
