Showing me somebody get bamboozled then show me a prizepicks ad is crazy 😂
They bamboozle me at least 4x a week 🤦🏾♂️
sports media definitely needs to put out more stories like this
They doing him like a record label
thats what the agents goal is and poor kids are a prime target
@@btcpac-pr7bu you definitely right about that. I feel like it’s not something talked about a lot the fact that agents are scum a lot
Of times
@@btienterprises9306 100% they do a good job make it sure it stays that way. speaking as a dude who grew up hard i know i would have fell for that bs when i was younger too thats why i dont judge the kids only the agents !
they did the same to lenny cooke
It’s all the same shit, 360 deals in every form of entertainment
I be tryna tell yall. Ain't no such thing as a real favor. Everything is transactional, nothing is free.
Damn you need to seek help
That’s subjective because a favor is just approval or support. It can still be transactional. A favor isn’t necessarily “free”.
And who is you lol
You ain’t tell “us” a damn thing 😂
Only women, children, and dogs are loved unconditionally. If you’re a man, you’ll only be loved conditionally. As a man any favor you accept from someone will be remembered and used against you.
As an okc fan, i wanted him to work out. As a fan of people, i wanted to see him succeed!
Talented player no doubt, fellow OKC fan he was so hot/cold best of luck to him
They had homie in a 360 Deal 😂😂😂 At least he's still in the league was able to get a decent contract. Youngster learned real quick, NOTHING IN THIS WORLD IS FREE.
He in the league? 😂
@@ghsense2626on the Utah jazz yes
That’s what’s happens in the entertainment business period. They give you a loans and you pay them back when you get to the top
@@ghsense2626He is. What you doing for your bread
@@ghsense2626 3.5M contract.
Keep sharing Gems like this. Educate the next generation!
Parents of athletes have to inform themselves it’s imperative
The Agents are sliding them money under the table for their kids compliance 😂💯
Hell parents don’t be knowing either
@@berlingray8058facts ppl must think parents dnt sell they kids😂
This whole situation doesn’t even feel real😂 this is why I love this generation of sports. Everyone can tell their story themselves.
This is a helpful interview!
He made it to the league and has made 11 million dollars.
Ain’t no better advertising than the ncaa tournament
That's outdated
lol them dudes be 26 in the NCAA Tournament 😂😂😂🤌🏿🤌🏿🤌🏿
Princeton High school legend 💪🏾
Darius Bazley should of went to college. He messed his career up bypassing it
Shoulda woulda coulda
Darius was tuff in high school
Did he not remember the Reggie Bush debaucle?
They were slick with it!
When you are perceived to be a future hot commodity whether in music or sports, hardly anyone does anything for you out of the goodness of their hearts. They will all come to collect sooner or later.
*It's like an advance but for hoops*
Okc legend
Baze was nice with OKC, they should e given him more playing time 💯
Wasn’t he signed to klutch?
Yeah but I don’t think he’s talking about Klutch
After this, Klutch took him on after he god in trouble & got him the new balance deal
@@FrankGallagher1700facts 💯 Syracuse was his school of choice but the klutch got him an internship
That was after he lost eligibility
He got a 360 post ncaa deal that’s crazy
Big time alpha for aspiring pro hoopers
"Putting you in a hotel training and working me out" is crazy no diddy
The Heat need to sign this kid!
Cuse needed Baze that year too. Gmac woulda got that shot right
I’m from Syracuse
Go Cuse!
Every top tier recruit seems to have a skills trainer now and they don't all have serious NIL money. So are they all susceptible to this or is it different because the agent was involved?
Theo hair dont grow at all man
I don’t get it. If they were doing all that before he signed with them how can he legally owe them?
He seems mature tho learned from his mistakes
The only question I have is, where were his parents when all these conversations were going on?
Seriously! No way he should’ve been handling all that by himself
They don’t care are they see is dollar signs
I got a chance to see d bazely in hs at an aau tournament in grand rapids mi. Bro was nasty i for sure though hed be a better nba player
the level of hoop in the league is crazy, cut him some slack
Dude looking like humpty hump from digital underground with that hat
Signed a 360 and didn’t even know it 😢. Parents should’ve tried to sue for exploitation 🤷🏽♂️
Does Syracuse still play zone? That woulda been a terrible choice
Whats the NBA trainer name?
Big U
The fact that one NBA Trainer and One Agent convinced this kid that he would have an advantage over his peers (who were rated higher and were better) by skipping college 😂 its no wonder why we are were we are in the moment of this podcast
You sound dumb. Rankings don’t hold merit. He clearly is an NBA talent. College doesn’t translate to pros. He scored 38 15 and 5. He’s nice.
They invoiced a minor? That's got to be illegal
As I Syracuse fan I feel we got robbed of a better season by LeBron and his greedy, underhanded agent. Bazley also got robbed because a year of college high profile exposure probably would have put him higher in the draft. In 2019 he went at 23. He signed a four-year $11 million contract. That's not bad. But my guess in 2019 he could not touch the top three (Zion, Barrett, Morant) but he could have gone ahead of number 7 Coby White. White signed a four-year $24 million contract. More than double what Bazley got.
At Syracuse Bazley would have played against Barrett and Williamson (At least twice at Duke- Sys split the series without Bazley) and Hunter (#4 pick out of Virginia) and White (UNC). There were six 2019 lottery picks Bazley would have played against in college. College would have allowed him to play himself into the lottery. He was robbed and should have been much richer. Barrett signed a four-year $107 million contract with the Knicks. IMHO Bazley would have gone right behind or ahead of Barrett.
He was robbed by his agent.
This why the thunder let him go he wasnt locked in enough
I remember when he announced it Jim boheim was pissed
All Syracuse fans were
👀
All NBA players do this. They play dumb about not knowing they’re taking shoes, money and more from ppl but then are shocked they have to pay these ppl back.
You were 17, not 7. Had to have realized why your classmates weren’t getting the same treatment you were.
Bc you don’t care as long as you’re getting the access to the free stuff and attention. You don’t care your classmates have to be in every class and take every test when you get to leave class/school early and the answers are provided for you to stay eligible to stay on the team 💯
Rich Paul is his agent right?
New agent yeah
bro had a 360 deal ?
No free lunches
Who is this agent? 🤔
A dirty one
It was another dude then he got in trouble for it & then rich Paul took him on
Rich Paul
@@Finetouchautopros😊
Damnnn AJ nuts ain’t dropped yet… I fw w y’all tho
Number one question. Where was is father or male family member that wasn’t blinded by the light?
Is he talking about Klutch???
No he went with rich after all this
damn
This is the dirty side. I feel bad for the brotha
Feel bad?! It worked out for him. He's still in the NBA. He plays for the Jazz now.
@@j-us-t_be-in-g the truma they put him through is wrong. Adults are supposed to protect not take advantage.
@@gome8148everybody acting like the was making the right decisions at 17 in the comments 😂
@@j-us-t_be-in-gneeds a bigger role
RICH PAUL played him
Shouldn’t the contract be void because he’s a minor at the time or was it tied to his mom?
All of that probably came up to 5k. That’s minuscule to even a g league contract
lol Trainers, Dinners, hotels, StockX shoes, c'mon bruh 5K is tiny
@@meenballa999 g league is 250k. He could’ve paid back whatever they gave him tenfold
@@threethirtynine1514 since when, when I was growing up g-league was 25K
No diddy
Boy what and how are you cashing out by betting with the Charlotte hornets? Cappin for the sponsorship
This is fucked up 💔 smh he should’ve paid attention it be like that
Who let aboogie in the leage
Rich Paul🤔
The last dude with the liss is crazy. Wtf did lil homie was saying?
But, he also got a $1M deal and an internship at New Balance. Did he cultivate any relationships while he was there?? Did he do any workouts on his own? All the open runs they have in the off-season (Drew League, etc..), did he participate in any? All this stuff he’s talking about is normal for everyone in athletics who go pro. Between the time you’re drafted, until you play your first game (or sign your deal), all the money you’re spending is borrowed from someone (usually your agent). We all like to find someone to blame when we fall short of our goals. But, how many of you would have made sure that you didn’t leave New Balance without some relationships that ultimately would resulted in you getting a deal? How many of you would have done what you needed to do for that year to make sure that when it was time you were ready. He could have went to college, but that $1M deal and that New Balance relationship would have been set up for him. He should have asked Darius what he could have done in that time to better himself. Because I can guarantee you he was probably just chillin’.
All of this happened before the new balance internship and deal, he literally even said this in a previous video that he wasn’t just chilling he was actually working and that Rich Paul was and is his agent that setup the new balance deal. Terrible assumptions when you could’ve just watched some more videos
This happen first then he went to rich Paul after he got in trouble then rich Paul got him the deal with new balance
@anthonybarros8988 Rich Paul failed him too lmfaoo your college ineligible go overseas and play Rich got him that intership and had this boy practing in a gym thinking that would be okay in the NBA 😂😂😂😂
6:03 BROS VOICE DONT MATCH NOTHING lmao He GOTTA CUT THAT BEARD OR GROW UP 🫡🫠😭😭😭😭
😂😂😂
I’m not gone lie I don’t feel sorry for bro ! It is what it is….
What is this? Where scrubs come to tell there what if stories?
Like u didn't know what you was doing
The hell this dude got on his head
A pillow case
Rich Paul & Klutch doing right by players again 🙄
Sounds like he got gassed up over the irrelevant things lol
scrub
Bro what is this dude crying about 😂
No one bamboozled you. You went into a realm known for taking advantage of people and misleading them from boxing, to rigged games, to fixed everything and you FAILED to know better and be better prepared/equipped to deal with what was taking place in front of you in real time. You ninjas kill me. You know these demons are constantly doing underhanded mess and now you are up here looking and talking crazy. Stop it. Educate yourselves folks and be prepared, these are the last days.
Uhhh, no, they totally bamboozeled him. Nobody has ever heard of something like this happening to a basketball player before. He was a teenager. Ur a psycho just like that agent.
He was 16, chill out
i can smell the jealousy you feel towards him because he won the genetic lottery, got finessed and found his way out with his talent, while you're unfulfilled in life lol you're such a bitter hater you forgot the he was 16 dealing with 40 and 50 year old executives
Is This shabazz Muhammad
