Alien: The Rookie Season of Victor Wembanyama 

My first attempt at a somewhat longer video than normal. I learned a lot making it. Definitely have respect for RU-vidrs who constantly churn these out. Hope you enjoy.

wishing a HEALTHY career to this kid it's a good thing he got to Spurs with Pop. Even with losing, he'll learn a lot from him instead of getting high numbers on a bad team with losing culture.

So Wemby's highest scoring ball thrown to fan in crowd, fined 25K, took ball from kid so wemby invites him to next game where its his last rookie game and its against the former champs and he reverses momentum overcomes the joker and spurs win it and gives the kid that ball dude is one HECK of a class act. love this kid more and more with everything i learn about him. epic to witness

Broooooo this has to be one of if not the best videos you’ve made to date!!! The way you were able to perfectly capture Wemby’s rookie season. I’m so hyped right now!! 🔥🔥🔥

This guy will be the next best generational talent. The fact he has the skillset and handles of a guard for a 7’4 guy is extremely impressive. Wemby will be an all time legend by the end of his time. I immediately became a fan of him after this year.

Honestly unbelievable when you look back at it in retrospect. Impossible hype, set up to fail, and Victor still succeeded.

I think you should continue these type of videos, definitely one of my favorites.

Where are all the haters from Wembys first summer leauge game, people thought he was a bust after 1 summer leauge game well jokes on them.

14:22 If this is true, Wemby is legitimately the nicest dude out there. Giving another game ball, hell, an even more important game ball, to that kid because of the officials taking the last one is truly class on Wemby's part. I love Wemby's character as much as I love his ball. GO SPURS!

If this dude stays consistent and healthy he might have the potential to be a GOAT.

Wemby missing DPOY will be looked back upon like Curry missing FMVP in 2015

Im from Brasil and became a Spurs fan because of Wemby, i cannot put in words how excited i am to watch him play in the next years.

love that inside story with the high school fan. very compelling storytelling, great job man

Imma keep that ball for life. Wemby is a legend for that.

one of his best traits, is he isnt afraid of anything, reminds me a lil bit of mike and kobe

love this new longer style content you tried in this video. Definetly felt refreshing watching this from you, good stuff

Great video. Sometimes, years later, fans and media try to rewrite history because they dont remember all the nuance that was present in the moment. Thats why I like videos like this that show all the ups and downs over the course of the season, it makes a lot of stuff make a lot more sense when looking back

I love the story with Wemby and the high school kid. The dude just looks like he manifests wins at times, its like looking at a superhero, but as a rookie 👀 Great job on the vid!

This guy will be the next best generational talent. The fact he has the skillset and handles of a guard for a 7’4 guy is extremely impressive. Wemby will be an all time legend by the end of his time. I immediately became a fan of him wishing a blessing of a career to him absolutely

Been watching only since last year but keep it up u my favorite analyst ❤

Your videos had turned me to an NBA Fan, You are by far the best analyst, content perfect, tune perfect 😃, knowledge perfect. Your work is really great.

The pacing and narrative building was so good in this video broooo! Love it

Wemby have that fiery passion for the game that some nba American players don’t have. Respect for Wemby 🫡

OMG, the video is so good, I don't know what really changed from your already good videos before but this one feels amazing, thank you for all this amazing content

Thanks for showing Wemby some love! He deserves it. I also really like the longer video format. The game ball story was nice too. I thought I knew everything about Wemby this season but somehow I missed that. What a legend move!

Wemby definitely deserved a longer vid.

Great job on summarizing his first year. Can’t wait for the second year and your future videos.

Superb vid, Casey. Though you think it's long, it's actually concise given it's summarizing a whole season in a genuinely well-thought-out way. And what a season it was for Wemby. It's exhillirating to think about what he can become.

i love this longer video. you go deeper than usual and what more can I ask that you make the first one with Wemby. GSG!

This was an amazing video! We need more wemby content like this!!

Amazing video. A perfect recap about Wembys season with all the ups and down. Keep it up!

man this video is HEAT 🔥🔥

Amazing video. You hit all that high points and gave awesome context to things like the sochan experiment, wembys reluctance to play center, and the dpoy impact. Tremendous job man. Subscribed.

Love this style of content. It feels like it has more structure and narrative to it.

This video was elite, man. Good stuff!

I love this format! You should create more of this

We love these longer videos ❤🎉

Excellent content in timely fashion! Thank you

Love the experimentation in this video

Wemby is now my favourite young player to watch in the NBA, he is a two-way player being aggressive on the D. Yeah I said it, the D, literally. He has the IT-factor, if he continues to improve even with age as long as he's healthy, this is gonna be interesting to see. Bonne Chance Victor.

Oh man I was at that OKC game Wemby took over in the fourth and it was my favorite Spurs regular season game I have been to in decades. Only other regular season game I have been to that I'd say was as exciting was David Robinson's first game in 1989.

Great video bro ! Love the longer vids

Great video keep them coming

Bro is a 2K Player, really unbelievable and this is yet his rookie season. He is gonna be scary for seasons to come

Great informative video man! Glad i watched.

these longer videos are so fire!

This kid has proved he’s something special. I can’t wait for his sophomore season.

My man can pump out the best video like this?! *Keep it up!*

Great job. Keep up the great work man👍

one of ur best videos so far. I am just hoping for him to stay healthy for career

Excited to see him in the playoffs again one day - dude is a true competitor

love this type of video

Love the longer video!

He should be DPOY. I'm an instant fan 👽

Loving the longer length of this video

Bring both em back fr, by far one y’all best video s

This style of commentary videos are 🔥 please make more!

Awesome Video!! Really appreciate this!! Cant wait to see Wemby in the Summer Olympics and into the next season!

Your best ever video, amazing job!

He is such a incredible player and person giving that ball to that kid

Great video, great editing, engaging pace, content on point, well played sir

Wemby is a full alien..

love your videos keep fire

🔥🔥🔥 Video !

great video start to finish!

Wemby is the NBA’s future ❤

I remember when the Spurs traded Dejounte away and you predicted Wemby going to them lol. Your experience as a journalist really shows through your videos. Keep up the good work.

Damnnnnnnnn wemby and chet rival arc is larger than I thought. That's some protagonist vs prodigy type of plot right there. I wish both of them long careers, would make NBA so fun to watch.

I loved this long vid, more please

Love all your videos. Great job

The only thing that stops this kid from one day being the GOAT is injuries IMO. It's like he was genetically engineered to dominate basketball.

I've been to 6 NBA games in my life, I was at that Spurs v Bucks game where Wemby went toe to toe with Giannis. That game BY FAR was the best NBA game I have seen in my life just by how exciting it was seeing Victor and Giannis go at it.

He so young the future is bright for him the sky is the limit

Awesome deep dive in to wemby’s season.!👽

Good videos man..have confidence in yourself and capabilities.

I enjoyed this longer format of video. Would love to see a Jokic vs Doncic MVP comparison in this longer style.

You make some of my favorite nba content so seeing you experiment with longer videos is def a bonus. Great work per usual.

I am so hyped for this kid, and I don’t watch basketball. That’s how amazing this video was. Now I know what nutmegging and shamgodding are.

Praying Wemby stays healthy for a very long time. Excited to see him grow and improve his game.

Great analysis. Wemby really needs more support from the teammates. A better supporting cast will help him improve and dominate the league even more. Keep up the good work! 🏀

Liked the longer format and the editing was above and beyond those crazy edits you usually do. Too much affiliation with gambling for me to re-subb but maybe someday I'll get back to the fold.

like the format a lot

I’m scared this is the last time we see wemby this average💀💀

Nice, something new yet familiar❤❤❤

I nominate this as the best NBA related video of the year if there is such an award!!! Just a little bit adjustment and advice: you cut the Adam Silver pick selection audio too early .. at least let him mentioned Wembanyama's name in full (I think an extra 4 seconds will do it perfectly fine). Other than that this is way beyond lit man!

Great video

fire video man

Just based on his rookie campaign and many things can obviously still go wrong, there is a good chance given the fact that the Spurs are a great organisation that this is actually the one prospect to rival michael jordan and Kareem. While I as a Dallas Fan and German will most likely hate every minute of it, as a lover of the Sport I wish him the most glorious career that is possible, the boy deserves it. I‘m gonna start calling him Napoleon from this season forward because the man is here to conquer it all! I guess the time to proclaim the dynasty of the Emperor could happen sooner than later, begrudgingly I’ll state „Vive la France“.

Awesome recap. Did you mention he checked himself in a game, breaking his minutes restriction to score and be awesome for a minute or so? What a dawg.

You mention his hands, how he converts some of his lobs is absolutely incredible. He doesn't have quite the hops of Anthony Davis, so despite his greater range, he sometimes just doesn't have the hang time to convert it into a dunk. Doesn't matter, he'll get that ball in the basket somehow before he lands.

Wemby will be scary in the years to come. With more experience and a team built around him, with another star and good roleplayers, not to mention a great coach, he might dominate the nba for several years.

He’s gonna be a generational player. Period

ROY and DPOY. Anything less is an injustice.

Not gonna lie I prefer this long form content from you. This video raised the quality bar a lot higher

already a fan before he entered the league but what he did to that high school kid makes me wanna travel to USA just to watch and support wemby play (im from asia lol)

great video Casey! good to see you venturing out on a longer video! only one thing, a bit of EQ on the mic or an extra pop filter (or just mic a bit futher out), those plosives where quite harsh which you never had with the previous setup ;)

Love the long video! I get these are hard work, but doing these occasionally would be warmly welcomed.

I loved how you did a longer video, can you keep doing longer videos?

Great video! I didn't know about how he invited that kid to the Nuggets game after the league took the game ball from him ❤. Also, around 5:55, you talk about how his teammates kept missing Wemby on offense. I remember a video you posted earlier this season where you argued against this narrative by citing his high usage percentage. Well well, who's agreeing now 😉

It speaks volumes about the player that he faced adversity all season but he persevered.
