Mans spilled his heart out and dude goes “that’s dope bro. Tough situation” 😂😂😂 bruh couldn’t be serious with that response

[@perctv1]

He’s just going through the motions

[@underrated2131]

They have no real podcast skills 🤣

[@murdog7631]

Lmao dead ass crying this is hilarious 😂

[@TLR1988]

If he didn't say that, he would've start crying. It's obvious with the immediate pause and look away Isaiah that it got to him.

[@Brloder]

Lmaoooooo 😂

[@AbelAraya]

Ngl this was hard to listen to cuz it was so impactful to him, and this was just heartbreaking. What made me smile with tears was in the end when he said, “We gonna be alright”. Wow.

[@user-rq9ig9bt2t]

Yea it being his younger brother and sibling the whole situation it’s crazy

[@GQLounge1]

That's a damn shame.... He was going to turn up in the league. Glad he found his path and he's alright mentally to even speak on these events. God be with you G

[@nacarrasquillo]

Damn the way they played him, his whole family, his circle, his team, knowing about his diagnosis and not telling him up front. He shouldnt have been the last to know.

[@GKLBB]

lol ion think they played him🤣besides u tell a 7ft mf they cant live their dream…that shi gotta be scary

[@user-bk8gx3jd7i]

I was sick when this happened, favorite player in college. So unfortunate to be RIGHT there and have it torn away.

[@oTrillMaine]

Damn man.. idk how I forgot about him. He was the original CHET but with a better handle.. 250m type talent! Sad

[@Sam.Honch0]

Yea basically he was the prototype for porzingis wemby and em

[@Sam.Honch0]

League was changing that same year with the warriors playing small and bigs having to be versatile he would’ve fit right in

[@fireestyle]

yeah that has to be tough man, huge props for him by not letting that define him.

[@dollarperlike4087]

Bro has a TESTIMONY, bigger that basketball. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@MegaShooter32]

Thanks for sharing this.

[@CPI99]

This dude was a big motivation to me in everything I do. I was a big fan of his game and was messed up when he was diagnosed not even knowing what Marfan's was. Come to 2017 and I was diagnosed with it too all because I made a joking comment about my skin stretching and my joints to my doctor which lead to my diagnosis. They need to do a better job at catching symptoms early

[@kenrrycastillo6185]

He literally was the 1st Chet and wemby bro smh I was hurt for him when I found out the news because he was one of my favorite college players

[@jcchambers7896]

Nah frfr bol bol he was moving different

[@kenrrycastillo6185]

@@jcchambers7896 austin was suppose to be drafted 2014. Bol bol got drafted 2019. Austin was bol, wemby and chet before they were

[@Kingkofi23]

Growing up in Arlington and watching him play was so tough seeing this happen to him. This literally wrecked our community. Everyone knew him and Eman were certified lottery picks. It was so sad to see his dreams get snatched away like that.

[@marlanekelly170]

This is deep stuff man

[@podfather6448]

Got me in here tearing up 🥺

[@NotoriousSSV]

Sad how he got right to the door & it slammed on him. Who dropped the ball on catching this sooner though? Glad he still doing well & in good health People consoling him before even telling him what was wrong was sad.

[@SouthsideHardhead601]

They tried to do Eddy Curry like that too..only thing was, he was already in the NBA

[@chrisayo8687]

Damn played against bro in high school too him Eman, jelon hornbeak, Jamal branch grace prep had a nba squad my team ain’t have no chance lol miss them battles tho

[@Godlovesu591]

I wished a team would’ve at least signed him for a game and let him play in one game

[@seanwoodson1143]

Damn I felt emotional listening to this. Made me sick when he said he walked in and his mom look like she had nothing left . Damn man.

[@user-dy7iu3wy9z]

When he took the deep breath, that’s when he realized he can’t do anything about it.

[@Bucketsthecake]

I hate that happened to him I know how much athletes put into training and hopes of making it to the pro level that’s a tough pill 🙏🏾

[@1waysomehow]

Bro was about to be great in the nba

[@freemaxb6533]

Dam this heartbreaking

[@ohigh6]

that would kind of piss me off that I am the last to know lol. My heart goes out to this guy but I am happy he was able to play overseas.

[@pauljohnson2590]

Damn i thought it was cuz of the eye that kept him from getting drafted

[@a1healthfitness321]

Got Theo crying in there

[@nywehere1737]

Damn man smh imagine working so hard for something than something out of your control puts an halt to your plans

[@shawnpdavis9819]

Starting to think they put something in his blood when they took blood from him all them years he been getting blood work and all of a sudden this happens when he sn adult hell nawwwl

[@bizbaby]

The mom stuff…

[@zakvanwey381]

I was almost crying to his story then yall go ranting about prize picks 😂🤦🏻‍♂️ smhhh. Crazy story tho

[@dazza284]

Guys is Theo pins on retired?

[@matthewa7433]

But didn’t he end up playing overseas in 2016… so why wasn’t he able to play in the NBA??

[@bizbaby]

Marian syndrome is fatal when it comes to the heart. So physical activity is risky. Those teams were probably willing to take the risk

[@adgee5401]

LIABILITY

[@Fredoaye]

Did any of these guys learn from Eddie curry he turnt down them tests bc he knew it would hurt future nba players

[@user-py7nw6ov1b]

I remember that story. Curry was super smart. The NBA On something different these days..

[@GIJake-oo9ir]

Soooo wtf was it

[@justinharris8698]

This shit got my eyes watering 💔

[@Keviekev115]

Medical Professionals legit ruined his basketball career. Man’s played for years after that

[@DandysB1]

Dude in the yellow hat gotta high pitched ass voice turn your volume down

[@wyattrichmond-wi7ix]

Wemby before wemby 💯

[@timthompson2406]

He was gonna be wemby b4 Wemby

[@mimicduzit]

Right that part ..

[@mimicduzit]

I don’t get it why not draft him Manx…jus bcuz he diagnosed..he still living n well

[@randomtees]

because could drop dead at any moment

[@dazza284]

How comes he’s rated but didn’t make an impact in the league

[@matthewa7433]

Why’s he talking about his mom being drop dead gorgeous lmao tf

[@MulletMike]

Yea I ain’t my moms ugly but that was a bit cringe hearing it lol

[@madrazproductions5776]

She was prob a amazing mom bruh not weird at all. Acting like he confessed attraction

[@GQLounge1]

He speaking like that because he love his mother. He speak about her soul.

[@MulletMike]

@@madrazproductions5776 nah bro. Yk know it’s weird as well. He damn near drooled

[@Aj-kale]

He was trying to explain that she didn’t look like herself at the moment. He was saying that her normal glow wasn’t there. Y’all 🥷 weird

[@kaevbabie08]

Terrible interviewer. No sympathy shown at all. “Dope bro” smh

[@aTribeCalledBreast]

Damn. You'd think it was HIV 😂
