I don't know why everybody hates on him because he declared late for the draft.
Dude was addicted to video games and played 12 hours a day which screwed up his high school and college education. He is basically every Redditor except he snapped out of it and became successful.

Not every redditor is 6’7 with parents that also played basketball at a high level.

6’9”

and also he listened to his parents. he was working at a warehouse after high school and his mom encouraged him to go to a basketball showcase. he went and a scout saw him and offered him their LAST available scholarship.
involved parents make the difference but you also have to take your parents' feedback.

But video games help train reflexes and decision making under stress. -- Redditors in parents basements

He's so fucking awesome. Anyone hating on him jus exposes themselves as weirdos
12. u/skr_skr · 2026-10-27 07:10 UTC
100%. This dude is awesome.
The people hating on him are of the same ilk that hated on Barkley when he came into the league and he spoke completely unfiltered, raw, a bit immature at times, but always honestly and intelligently. Fucking pearl clutchers. And I bet they’re the same people that bitch about the league being soft.

Didn't Barkley spit on a kid? There were plenty of reasons to hate him lol

Chuck literally defenestrated a man and that’s not a word you get to use often outside of Chuck

Huh, I didn’t know there was a verb for throwing somebody out of a window lmfao. In case anyone else is like me and didn’t know what that word meant — defenestrate — “to throw or push someone or something out of a window.”

Somebody fell asleep during Early Modern European History! Gotta learn your Thirty Years War, buddy!
17. u/Fermorian · 2026-10-27 07:59 UTC
Unrelated, but see also: The defenestrations of Prague!
18. u/ModestMousegorssky · 2026-10-27 13:39 UTC
That's not unrelated at all - they were referring to the most famous Defenestration of Prague when they mentioned the Thirty Years War

HE JAZZY JEFFED SOMEONE!! 😱😱

You can thank the Bohemians, who did this to their city council so often (just three times actually) that the English decided to give the incidents a name:
