"I'm free in that universe…" — What a line. Full interview drops tomorrow and it's so good. Subscribe if you haven't and we'll see you there.
Damn he's gonna be so good man……We got Zion who is like the literal example of the person he said he won't be…Spurs in the division…..why, life?
My Spurs really got one, again. We are blessed ngl
Had to check JJ height after this. He seems 5'9 lul
He acts as if he is already around 25 years old super mature dude right here can’t wait to see him play in the Big league
For years all these euro players are so mature and humble compared to the Americans at the same age and/ or same stage in life. I don’t know what exactly that says about us Americans but it certainly says something…
Sheessh. I am already in awe of his humility despite being in the spotlight but this clip just makes me root for this guy more. I'm an OKC fan btw, not that it matters lol.
BUST
Pop is going to make him a champion
Damn I like the kid he has a good head on his shoulders and I believe he’s going to do just fine in San Antonio
no, he isn't, he just thinks he is, it's delusion
Damn I'm a fan now. This dude is mature for that age. Wow
Real life Demi god
This guy is a real life anime MC😂
Idk about y’all but he had me when he said he’s seen inception and actually understood the totem concept, cuz you’d be surprised how difficult that movie is to understand
Honestly, this kid has a good head on his shoulders. I hope to see tenacity as well, and he can be as great as anyone
In spurs uniform he has to be like tim Duncan or atleast Robinson
Bro tried so hard to sound woke lmao. What happened to humility and being real. He just said what he thinks we wanna hear.
Bro is the best prospect ever and he’s enlightened 😂😂
It seems like JJ was high for this interview.
His voice is Andre the giant esque. Thyroids?
Surprised I'm that Reddick never mentioned family as a key source of
Wemby being centered.
Bro look at this kids hands
JJ is 6'3…Wemby looks like a mythical CREATURE
"You are."
His “totem” is his authentic desire to succeed. Basketball is his way of expressing that. He’s also suggesting that while many young players do have the skills and talent necessary to perform well, they are not authentically driven in their desire to succeed on the court, and thus fall short. Respect.
bro did not see inception
TBH kinda vapid answers for the hype. Sounds like a movie script.
Putting this one in the archive…
Lol get bigger bro
