  1. GOD IS LOVE AND LIGHT ALL POSITIVE ENERGY TO U AND YOUR WONDERFUL mother true love of mom in God.we trust always every hour every minute every second amen 333

  2. And then we have coddled lil ahh bronny over here taking spots for other less fortunate families!.. Who DESERVE it way more through hard work and discipline!! Not just cuz daddys bron 😏 Yet They see NOTHING wrong with that!!! 🤬

  3. Well, guess what? Those days are over. Find a good financial advisor, invest your money well, and you can take care of your fam for the rest of their days.

  4. This is one of those moments that manly tears are required. All of us dudes who either went through hard times, or seen our parents go through hard times to support us…our tears can fill an ocean, and we're all rooting for this bro rn.

  5. Not to be racist or anything but what black or Caribbean people had to go through u see pain all on bro face in a ball 🏀 was his way out but we still entertaining for money 💰let that sink in 👀👀👀

  6. I don't always believe that a dawg can only come from adversity – look at Kobe – but I gotta root for this kid. I hope he succeeds on and off the court.

  7. I just yelled let’s goooo loud as hell! I fuckin love this kid already this is what the sixers need. Trench baby with straight heart 🔥

  8. Beyond happy for this young man. He knows what struggle is and will not take his opportunity for granted. I wish him the absolute best.

  9. And this was the origin story of the greatest of all time kids.

    See this is what the new gen superstars are missing, that’s why they don’t take this game serious (Zion ja) when you had guys like bron, Rodman, d rose people who came from nothing, you could see the way they played the game with passion. This is why players from overseas are taking over, new gen American players lack the motivation.

  10. Damn, what a terrible mother. How do you let your kid live off a generator for 7 years? That’s one lazy mom.

  11. This is a great moment but his voice kinda sounds like one of those people who do parodies of NBA moments

  12. Shows what can be achieved through struggle 🙏 Good luck to him and his family ❤ Mom getting a nice house soon 😊

  13. I don't think I'll root for someone to have success and happiness more than this kid. The Sixers are drafting guys who are personable, intelligent, and tough. Edgecombe, Maxey, and McCain are good guys who are easy to root for.
