[@alang7623]

His assists are insane !

[@Romans--xk3uu]

I think offensively he could easily play in the pros. I wonder if he could hang with them defensively. I think on the right team, with the right coaches, that he could do it.

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

You underestimate how good even NBA scrubs are. Professor played JUCO and then streetball, that's nowhere near NBA level. I fuck with professor but NBA players can score at a different level from him. He got a great handle but that's the only thing he does at an NBA level.

[@brandonfromkc2815]

Iverson is only 6ft...proff 511...

[@miloandrus3422]

Yep but he's not steph curry

[@miloandrus3422]

Yeah but Iverson was punk

[@coachfuzz524]

He’s good at basketball entertainment. I’m old enough to have been to an AND-1 game in Sacramento California. When I watched the game I was shocked at how no one played defense and the only purpose was to try to get a highlight no real basketball was even being played. So many turnovers and mistakes (outtakes) occurred it this god awful two hours I was there. It reminded me Of average skateboarders filming themselves downtown falling 50 times before they land it once

[@jeetkunedophysiologymore4221]

Also... what he said about how he is WAY better now than in his 20's...I feel ya there man... same with me and Martial Arts.. I'm 38 now and BEST shape I've EVER been.. overall... keep going out and "gettin' it" there Professor!!!

[@dmarley_mal]

Big shoutout to the professor for keep it a buck. Legend in my book 💯

[@FanaticsViewOfficial]

No doubt! 💯

[@ogdumplings8196]

He is the most humble guy i have seen he has got million dollar worth of skill but he chose for that bread for kids all around the world

[@fccxdrx]

He is definitely an amazing player and an even better person. He would be a huge asset to any NBA team. The amount of attention and viewership they get would be unbelievable.

[@FanaticsViewOfficial]

Thanks for watching Steven!

[@ruhtraeel]

Respect to finding a career path where he could succeed. Not everyone is born as athletic as what the NBA requires. That's the fault of the sport itself, not really on him (basketball isn't like soccer in the sense that anyone short or tall could succeed)

[@torreygibb5653]

[@jeetkunedophysiologymore4221]

My son who is 11 introduced me to "The Professor" on KZbin...I think he would have done VERY well in the NBA!!!

[@waynediamond7736]

No. If ole Grayson was capable of playing in the NBA, he’d be in the NBA.

[@christianmonturanoii6539]

Hes pretty good was watching videos on him

Grayson Boucher averaged 4.5 points, 0.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game in his 13-game career with the Atlanta Krunk. 2007-08

[@tylercolden9823]

You are not dead yet bro I'd love to see u in a progame I dident even like watching basketball till you when I was young yo if you were in one progame I bet that would make so much money!!!!!!!! So many people would watch like the Conner vs Mayweather fight it is just something people would HAVE TO SEE

[@MiamiHeat305]

Man he'd have made the league especially in this era now

[@MarioGonzalez-nm2ql]

Hell no...

[@Dbjjr26]

Lol nah and he knows it. But hes still dope. Just not at that level NBA is hardcore they just make it look easy

[@BronerBeast]

Too short on the defensive end.

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

I love professor I grew up watching him but he's not even close to NBA level. He played JUCO ball and went to streetball. NBA players are just animals son even the scrubs. If professor was like 6'2 he'd at least get looks but the way he is now or at his prime hell nah its not even close.

[@maxbecker5252]

Ur right. No defense anymore. Now would be his time.

[@JFigueroaGuitar]

Professor, you're in charge, not being a part of a souless system. Happiness is key. Much love.

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

The NBA isn't a soulless system, anybody who could make the league would want to be there e

[@waynediamond7736]

The professor palms all day. Good competition will school him all night.

[@chibang492]

This man has mad skillz. He would break alot of peoples ankles I'm the NBA, and probably be an allstar, especially in today's league.

[@futinkings3113]

He would be like harden but better

[@AnishBhethanabotla]

@@futinkings3113 what??? have you ever watched a rockets game and profesor game or are you just looking at stats

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

If he would have been an all star why did he not stand out in JUCO or go any further? C'mon man if he could play in the league he'd would have. He's a big name and would draw fans just for the opportunity. He wouldn't make any NBA team today, it's funny you say how he'd make it especially today but today the role players are probably better than ever. The baseline to make the league is harder than ever.

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

@@futinkings3113 what part of his game is anything like harden? They both have a handle that's it.

[@coachfuzz524]

In what world?

[@kyledavis1783]

Am I the only one who finds it hilarious when athletes talk about how they “should’ve” made it pro after they DIDN’T make it pro? We get it, you were talented. Clearly not enough to go pro, since, ya know, you didn’t go pro.

[@Zermm]

He is closer to Jordan than you are to him.

[@alextayoyong3712]

Those who can't teach: THE PROFESSOR!

[@johnholland67]

He is quite possibly the best ball handler I've ever seen.

[@Jiu-Jitsu-Robot]

Aka Charlie Z the pfp greatest of all time.

[@XtraThankYouTube]

So this is the dude they based The Professor off of in *3on3 Freestyle?* lol

[@andrewf0784]

He is better than me, I'm willing to admit. But the thing is actual basketball and streetball are two different animals. Scouts look at size, height, defensive and rebounding ability, shooting percentage, etc. How you can contribute to winning games. Not only at how well you handle the ball. There are anomalies like Bogues and Webb but they are the exception not the rule. Don't get me wrong I respect the professor and he is entertaining, but I just don't think he would be that impactful in a pro setting

[@TheVCRTimeMachine]

Follow up question; Did he ever think of getting a decent haircut?

[@whatmeworrynotoday]

I don't know how much money your making doing your thing. But you should have went overseas. I know quite a few personally who aren't as good as you. Got paid. Millions... But you seem happy. Good for you.

[@AnishBhethanabotla]

@Darkmystic exactly, he couldve gotten real money overseas rather than just 2 mil

[@yvitataf]

Name one big player in europe who deserves the same money with professor

[@ShawnPaul86]

@@AnishBhethanabotla In what world is 2 mil not real money?

[@spkr62]

I just starting watching this dude. He travels everytime with the ball! Unfortunately its allowed ever since Iverson came into the league to allow an extra step without ref's calling illegal move. Just saying.

[@spkr62]

Also palms the ball like most nba players but league allows it cuz it makes them look like better players then they really are. Go to back the 60,s, 70,s, 80, 90,s and palming the ball was an illegal move. Except for John Stockton who palmed it every time too but they didnt call it! Just saying again.

[@BallerzTV2023]

*He can score to any NBA players, yeah that's a fact. But the nba needs a two way player that can do defense and offense at the same time. They didn't make an offer for him because he is not even 6 footer and just a skinny guy. A bench player can easily score against him so they refuse to give this man an nba contract. professor's skill can make your favorite idols in the NBA looks amateur. but defensively, he is not able to guard them with that skinny size. this is the truth about it*

[@johnthomas6516]

Ever heard of Allen Iverson?

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

That's not true, NBA players also can play D. It doesn't show when they have to guard other elite players but there's times professor struggles on rec league guys. NBA guys are a whole different animal. If professor was league level scoring wise he'd have gotten further than JUCO ball. Son can ball but y'all don't realize how good the NBA is.

[@deishawnclarke308]

@@johnthomas6516 Iverson is one of the most athletic point guards of all time. Dont compare the professor to him lol

[@maxbecker5252]

Defense isn’t a thing in the nba anymore.

[@paulgentile1024]

I think he could very well play NBA..a starter ?.. that's a whole different level but I can see him making a team on his talent..

[@nickionadibasketball6437]

Ok let’s adjust some facts here from someone whose been there before : Frankly you are making things up. First - The CBA folded in 2009. The Dleague began in 2001. They both coexisted since 01. I. Other words the d league was there as far back as your HS years, despite you saying otherwise. That was an avenue available. You couldn’t get off the bench at a weak community college. This is a fact., This is all excuses and rationalizations from someone who simply was not good enough. Mediocre in Hs, mediocre in college. Found a niche in an area that is an entertainment form of the super like a globe trotter, and has done well for himself but stop this nonsense about the nba or Europe.

[@coachfuzz524]

Fact checked! Yeah I thought that whole CBA thing he was saying was off thanks for clarifying that

[@justinbranch8710]

Dude’s a fucking clown

[@JasTheKariol]

Simply not tall enough. Nothing else. It's a sport for taller people, if you want to go pro.

[@angie0172]

JasTheKariol their are short ppl in the NBA as well tho. If he was truly good(which he is in my opinion) his height wouldn’t matter.

[@teamrealbuds8353]
