MO BAMBA Told Teams Not To Draft Him Then Became A BUST!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ส.ค. 2024
- Today’s feature is on his 3rd NBA team heading into his 6th season. Through 3 games beginning this year he’s appeared in 1 of them for a total of a minute thirty two seconds and recorded a block and no other stats. In 2018 no one would’ve guessed this would be the case when Mo Bamba was considered one of the year’s top prospects, that had so much potential he could tell the Memphis Grizzlies not to draft him as he’d rather not have anything to do with their team. Of course they didn’t and selected Jaren Jackson Jr, who became an all star in Memphis, Defensive player of the year, 2x all defensive first team and twice led the league in blocked shots. He’s also helped the Grizzlies become one of the more promising teams in the NBA before they self destructed and are now 0-4 on the 23-24 season. Mo Bamba was taken 6th in that draft by the Orlando Magic and played at least 50 games just twice in his career and failed to live up to the hype surrounding him up until they traded him early 2023. He had a short stint with the Lakers, then off to the 76ers, were he's seldomly used in the initial stages of this season. MO BAMBA Told Teams Not To Draft Him Then Became A BUST! Stunted Growth

Mo Bamba is a super smart kid and has great physical tools. That being said he has no desire to physically work hard. Sometimes sports are not for everybody.
Refusing to work out for teams before the draft wasn't very smart! From his actions he appears to be quite dumb!
Totally agree with you , he’s lazy . He he out in the effort he could be an all star but he’s not the only one
@@bigm6787 I don't think he lazy .I think physical labor is not for everybody. Maybe he was better off becoming an accountant lol 🤣 We can agree that he not passionate about basketball
Definitely comes across as being a nice dude and speaks professional and proper. Came from Harlem too with an immigrant family so good for him. But I really thought he was going to be an all star.
@@CCL0286 Me too , I told my brother that he was the next Kareem 😭
I remember right around the draft watching a video where JJJ and Bamba worked out with KG and JJJ impressed the hell out of KG and you could see he was locked in and motivated and Bamba had more attitude and didn't seem to have that same fire. Here we are 6 seasons later and that initial impression looks very valid. Grizzlies got the right guy.
It’s crazy how the song is more popular than Mo.
My man didn’t even make a roster and he’s already telling teams not to draft him 😂😂😂😂😂😂 he fumbled the bag smh.
You know how many players did this?
Hindsight makes everyone a genius
@@FlowboyVegas1man shut up lol 😂
@@FlowboyVegas1you lame af
He got drafted at 6
Bamba simply lacks motor and work ethic. Looks like he barely put in work in the weight room since getting drafted and not motivated to be a good NBA player. It's all on him
Wasn't expecting to see you here Wilson, what's up?
Daddy Wilson
Wilson, what are you doing?!!! Playing hooky from your own channel? HAHAHA🤣HAHAHA
Every year since his rookie year I wanted the Rockets to trade for him. I just figured Orlando didn''t know what they were doing with him. This video really broke down that Mo is indeed his own worst enemy. Excellent video. I learned something.
CNN
As a long-time Grizz fan, it's so satisfying to see Bamba not living to his hype.
Laziness is the biggest hindrance to becoming great, no matter how much natural talent or potential you have.
Bruh did Memphis a favor 😂
That’s crazy how someone can be a McDonalds all American averaging 12 points & 9 rebounds
@alanball2 Absolutely. Plus, Westtown (the School Bamba went to) is now a bball factory and powerhouse, and his team had Cameron Reddish (NBA Lottery pick) as well as two other high D1 players on it, so he wasn't gonna have crazy numbers. But you could see the talent was there. He definitely deserved to be a Hamburger guy
Reminds me of Josh Jackson. Another high lottery pick that had a ton of potential and flaked on teams for some of his pre draft workouts.
Yo wtf happened to him…And Dragen Bender…And Alex Len …Sheesh the suns suck at drafting 😂😂
@@spvzonthetrack9957 Could be good players but not given opportunities.
@@Turk_2023 dragan was a bottom 5 NBA player for almost every year he was in the NBA, and was bottom 10 when he wasn't. Alex Len still has NBA contracts because he's a good backup big and Josh Jackson is inefficient
@@web_khun5430 His last NBA season he was 22 years old. He only averaged 4 shots a game in his most efficient year. Hard to make yourself a good player in circumstances like that. Just was saying the NBA you just have to be lucky they need your position.
He's a classic example of when you incorrectly develop a 7 footer to be a three point shooter. NOT EVERY CENTER needs to be a three point shooter!
Really loved using him on 2k was hoping he would develop
Yup. Lakers 2k23. Dude is a real threat!
Foreal he blocks everything and can hit a open 3
He's fast, can shoot 3, and block. Him and Giannis with Azubuike is a monster of a line up. 😂
I figured the mo bamba song would have been one of his stunted growth😂😂😂
I was in FedEx Forum for the Grizzlies draft party that year. They booed the #$&@ outta dude when he was introduced pre-draft.
Quietly a beast on every 2k career mode for me 😂
At least he had a hell of a Song named after him! That song had the whole country Hyped!
Could you do Skal Labissiere, UK biggest one and done bust
He already did a video on him, check the archives
Naw he wasn't even that good at Texas I knew he wouldn't be great in the league. I swear a lot of yall was casuals and got hyped off a song 😂
Its guys like him and bol bol that i dont understand got all the tools height, length, athleticism, shooting but dont put it together??? They suppose to be like giannis, wemby, chet...
When met with any resistance, they fold like cheap loose-leaf.
@@brightmamba889 loose leafs r expensive ?
Some guys just don't like basketball, even though they are built for it. It's easy to say he should just retire and do something else, but most of us not turning down a paycheck like that until we don't have a choice but to. I can't knock him for that.
That’s even MORE reason to work harder. Pay increases with play at his job. Something that rarely happens in other careers.
@@TheRulerRoderickSuttonpeople can work harder for promotions & extra hours but the juice is not worth the squeeze. They are satisfied
@@TheRulerRoderickSutton Ambition drives self-improvement. If he's content with his current status quo, then the ambition isn't there.
Always thought he would be the perfect backup to Myles Turner. But Jalen Smith put in the work this summer and is the player I thought Mo could be on the Pacers.
1:08 aye mane…we ain’t gonna talk bout that 😅
At least he has a song named after him lol

Really had high hopes for him 😔

I play ball 2-3 times a week and see noticeable improvement monthly. I’m 5’8 and not athletic. Crazy to me that guys with elite physical tools can come into the league, practice every day for years with top level coaching and barely improve. I think it really comes down to someone’s desire & drive to improve.
He's probably improved just isn't at a good place where he can get shine. Plus sometimes perceptions stick whether right or wrong
Those my friend are novice gains. A complete newbie going to the gym would probably lose more pounds in their first 3 to 5 months until they hit their plateau compared to a professional bodybuilder. Elite of the elite basketball players (ie the NBA) only see minute incremental changes because they are way way beyond normal people who plays basketball in their free time.
He did us a huge favor as a grizzlies fan lol
At least he had a cool song made about him 🔥
He didn’t even give himself a chance to at least fake it til he made it. Smh
Bro had potential
Or aggressive hugging had me crying 😂😂😂😂
I wish you could start a series on rookies and their potential. I'd like to hear your perspective on Wemby.
Orlando was an ideal place for mo just as it would've been in Memphis...mo is the only one to blame for his situation
7:50 Yo ‘Smart Offenders’ sounds crazier tho 😳
You mean Smart Offensive players
I just found that funny 😂
Mamba mentality>Bamba Mentality.
he was balling on the magic for a bit last year. i wish he got another chance
I just watched a “ What happen to Shek Wes “ video yesterday what a coincidence 😂
We can't always blame the team, sometimes players just never live up to the hype.
Dunny how now that he left the Magic are one of the best teams in the league as of right now.
Ain't got no intestinal fortitude like the Tin man no heart 💜
Good video on Mo Bomba tho. I'm surprised you didn't mention the song named after him in the video once. Pretty good video non the less🏀👌🏽
Patrick Williams of the Bulls. He’s in a make or break year. Be interesting to hear your breakdown of him. Blessings
Thank you! All I've been hearing the last 3 years is hype and/or that he'd the the center of a package. Like who tf wants him?
The breakdown is that Williams is buns. The end.
Mo Bamba basically didnt even have a job and he had the balls to show up to that weird rich celebrity cult party thing 😂😂😂
Mo Bumba😂
Do a Stunted Growth on "Team USA in the World Cup." Why do the top NBA stars decline to join that tournament?
Because players don't care to play more then they have to especially with how they need to concentrate some much on the nba season seeing how the league is loaded damn near everywhere
@@mxhughes That doesn't explain why they're so eager to play in the Olympics then.
Olympics offer more prestige, something the world cup doesn't, and something the in season tourney lacks, compared to the Larry Obrien.
@@MrPhilbautista the prestige of playing in the Olympics still holds weight but alot also don't care to spend time playing in the Olympics then get right into the season that's taxing on some players
That mo bama song changed him 😂😂
Lakers fan love to have him back.
Hey now, I agree with a majority of this video, but those Orlando Magic strays were uncalled for 😂. We had so many injuries in the last three seasons. Players were not regressing, and our team has only gotten better!
Better song than player
Definitely not capitalizing on his opportunity 💯
Fire!!! Now we need one on PJ Hairston.
The best thing that came from mo B is he inspired a cool song 😂😂 but peace too him everybody ain't the black mamba
Cant wait for Bol Bol stunt growth
That Mo Bamba song by Shock Wes was an anthem back in the day like around 2018-2019 lol
I saw Bamba play SO much in high school and his talent level was really, really high. I've never seen anyone who has longer arms than he does, and it really seemed like he would be a very good NBA player. But, this video points it out so well...That passion, that drive, that dog just doesn't seem to be in him. These things can be hard to project, but that definitely seems like the biggest reason he's been such a disappointment. He seems to be content just resting on his laurels vs really doing what he needs to improve and stay in the league.
Feel sorry for Mo in a way. He did it to himself, but he could’ve been Wemby before Wemby got here. Wemby is a beast because he’s humble, but most importantly, works his ass off. Mo approached being a unicorn all wrong and just didn’t try because he figured the specs would make up for it.
I remember telling everyone I knew he was going to bust. The hype he had before the draft was crazy smh
He’s actually good. I watch him all the time and if only he could get minutes
That’s what I’m saying. He’s played for Magic and Lakers. They’re both known for fumbling talented players. I usually agree with this channel, but I still believe in Mo.
Man please that dude got no heart to compete he's spoiled in his mentality
The size but no heart 😅
The song def gassed his head up
Hilarious that he says he wants to be on a team that wins, when he has never won anything in college, going 11-22 on the season and 4-14, dead last in big 12. Like what have you done to contribute to winning my guy?
He also said he is going to make Mavs regret for picking Luka over him, thats the funniest if you ask me.
These young draftees are idiots. Telling a team not to draft you??? 😅😅😅
Lavar told 29 teams not to draft Lonzo and look how that worked out. You’d figure people would learn, by now.
Honestly both Mo and Bol Bol need to sign back to the Magic for the minimum because they have something special going and it’s the only place where they believe in them enough for them to work themselves back into the position they are supposed to be
I remember telling everyone that Luka and Mo were by far the best players in that draft. At least I was half right 😂
When I saw Bamba get drafted by Orlando, I immediately knew that was going to be a problem for his development.
Mo may be tall but inside there’s a mouse in the house, and I’m not talking House of Mouse. Brotha got expoxed, got EpCaught
The Magic are great with centers. Just look at how Shaq and Dwight turned out. Even Darko Milicic improved a bit during his stint with the Magic. Vooch was great during his time in Orlando. The organization wasn't the reason for Mo's stunted growth.
And I bet more people thought the Luka take at the time by you was the wild one lol because Mo was nice
It wasn't the magics fault he just didn't have the drive or desire and supposedly he had a condition and it got worse with covid
@@CCL0286 Yupp that was somehow a hot take at the time. I had a lot of people saying things like “He’s not athletic enough for the NBA.” 😂😂😂
That’s Krazy❗️I just KNEW he would come in the league and Elevate his game!!! Guess it’s much easier to be on GOOFY TIME ❗️🤨
Never have a song named after you
Can you please do one for Mike Evans from Booker T Washington High School in Norfolk Virginia. He was the #2 point guard in the nation coming out of high school behind Jason Kidd
Doubt it bro
And had a hit single based off him. Wit hard work and now a crazy buzz to ur name. Shit could be a lot different
Yo do a video on Patrick Williams for the Bulls
My fav 2k center off the bench😂
Mo Bamba busy, cause he got 304s callin a young ninja phone.
.....at least there's that song Sheck Wes did for him.
I just love the song now
Hard to have success when you don't get to play. Hell, some players I have to do a Wikipedia on to see who they play for.
I knew he was going to be a bust because of that song. The dude ego was already through the roof. Dudes who be choosing where they don't want to go to 9 times out of 10 those dude become bust. A hungry dude doesn't care where he goes. He want to make that paper.
What about Kevin Knox who became a bust for the Knicks?
He did him
that song made his career
00:15 I can't stop watching how he palms the ball right away
But he has one of the hypest songs in a club named after him so that’s a w
Being part of Memphis young core woulda worked so well for him. To bad when ego gets in the way of opportunity
I think he would have been perfect on a team like Golden State. He would have learned how to win and compete
Who have you seen develop on the Warriors like that because unless you're Klay, Steph or Draymond in the late 2010s you aren't getting better, just winning a ring
@@troylee4196 um Kuminga? Podz? TJD?
Me coming from harlem and also growing up in the same Neighborhood as him. We all loved basketball and wanted to make it. To tell a team to not draft you comkng out of the hood is a big no no 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
I remember when people said he would be better than triple J
Making you realize how special is Embiid
Man, so sad. 😔
He lacks fire in his belly. The killer instinct is just not in him to be an impactful center. I'd like to see him get some burn at the 4 spot with the Sixers where he could perhaps be a 3 and D player.
Mo Bamba reminds me of Hasheem Thabeet who flamed out in the NBA.
The Magic traded Mo Bamba and now they’re 14-5 and just picked up their 9th straight win
Coincidence or not?!?!
Mo Had all the potential in the world to be the best pnr defender in the league
Mo Bamba not alone
These guys come from Africa and be 21 years old playing in high school
This was a great video. I thought Bamba was gone be a star for sure but he went to the wrong franchise.
Great point and this is 😮why the number one pick to the Spurs was rigged, because the NBA needs a new face of the league because LeBron is on his way out and Victor will replace him so they could ill afford to have him go to a franchise like Orlando where he would be a bust so POP has had Tim Ducan Tony Parker Lennard, Robinson. He knows how to develop players so the draft was rigged to send Victor there. Mo Bamaba it would have been a different story if POP would have got him.
Also hate when NY talent leaves for high school
Bro couldn't even get a real deal in the off season smh
Reminds me alot of Thabeet from UCONN picked early due to physical potential but never really had a staple to hang his hat on in terms of playstyle Mo has a 3 point shot but hes not a good shooter, hes 7'1 but hes atrocious in the paint, hes skinny but he doesn't run up and down the court, and outside of shot blocking he doesnt offer up anything else defensively
Tabeet was from uconn wasn't he?
@@AwoL205 He was I got my Big East schools mixed up lmfaoo
Mo is much more athletic than Thabeet!
@@thescatman5029 I would be inclined to agree but what does it matter if he doesnt incorporate his atheltisicm into his play he doesnt run up and down the court isnt dunking crazy on dudes etc
Imagine Mo Bamba and Ja Morant on the same team?
Bamba and Cam Reddish were on the same high school team, if you can imagine that.
