NBA Players Who Played Through The UNTHINKABLE. 😳
NBA Players Who Played Through The UNTHINKABLE. 😳
In this video, we look back at one of the most emotional and inspiring playoff runs in NBA history. In 2017, Isaiah Thomas established himself as the “King in the Fourth” and led the Celtics to the #1 seed, but the day before the playoffs began, he tragically lost his 22-year-old sister, Chyna. We break down how IT pushed through unimaginable grief, physical exhaustion, and even a lost tooth to deliver a legendary 53-point playoff masterpiece on what would have been her 23rd birthday.
The Unthinkable Run:
The Heartbreak: Receiving the devastating news about his sister just 24 hours before Game 1 of the playoffs.
The Dedication: Suiting up and dropping 33 points while fighting back tears on the court.
The Masterpiece: Flying cross-country to deliver her eulogy, landing in Boston at 4:00 AM, and scoring 53 points to honor her on her birthday.

Was what the Celtics did to him just business or was it dirty? 🤔
this is a sad story, but with all respect THIS IS THE FIRST TIME U HAE EVER SHOWN UR FACE, FACE REVEAL???
Alright, amazing video, but I do have to say, a massive pet peeve of mine is when YouTubers say "unalived". It just takes away from the gravity of the situation and makes it feel more lighthearted than it actually is. Like, this 22 year old girl was killed in a car accident. I've seen countless YouTubers say killed in their videos and their videos not get demonetized, striked, or age restricted.
Probs the only Celtic anyone could ever respect more than Larry bird. They didn’t in forty with his back injury😭
What a player
Wait are you the owner of this voice or nah
It’s crazy how the Celtics also traded him
Wasn’t he drafted in 2011
And yet, they still traded him 😑
Yo I share a birthday with Chyna❤😊
"They gave up on me"
did more for the Celtics than the guy drafted 59 spots ahead of him
Legendary baller
The idea is well made I will come back to watch it again.
me dying in a horrific car accident just for some random guy on the internet to say i got unalived in a vroom vroom machine
Wow
"Unalived" dude are we serious. you can say killed.
This sounds unreal
And then they gave up on him
