[Highlight] Wemby and Yabusele embrace after the game
I think he told the man about his grandma right there :(
He did, you see it in Yabu’s face and eyes…like fuck man I’m so sorry that happened.
I’m French and i can clearly hear the word “grand mère” even if I’m not sure about the rest, so most likely
“J’ai perdu ma grand mère ce matin” est ce que j’entends. Triste
Pareil.
Québécois ou français? Comment un français se retrouve à soutenir les Raptors?
Et bien il faut bien choisir une équipe j’imagine, et celle dans laquelle je me retrouvais le plus était celle qui n’était pas directement aux US 😉
Omelette du fromage
Only French I know and now I have a French wife 🥖
You should probably have learned “Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir ?” by now haha
Omfg, you son of a bitch. My high-school-level-french dumb ass was trying to follow these comments to see if I could understand them. I was so focused that I only realised after reading your comment.
Who says you cant learn anything from Dexter’s Lab?
Please tell me this is a dexters laboratory reference lol
Wsh t’as fait du sens là
Tu as demandé à l’autre mais dans mon cas j’ai immigré en Ontario il y a quelques années, donc je supporte local :-)
Raptors legend De Colo
Do you even Canada?
On a tous différentes raisons de choisir nos équipes !
Damn, I thought it was Abuelita or some shit
Yeah, you can hear it, he said « j’ai perdu ma grand mère » et Yabu lui a dit said, « non » in disbelief.
It’s gotta be tough to have to be in public after news like that. Glad he’s getting a couple of days off.
It was day of too. Like what’s he supposed to do? Not play and let his entire team down? It’s a really tough position to be in.
Yep. :(
Indeed.
Wemby: “I lost my grandma this morning” Yabusele: “No…”
That man is 6’7”
That freaks me out
Seeing him do regular sized athletic people stuff makes my brain fuzzy. It just shouldn’t be happening.
Say that again?
I was also genuinely alarmed when Wemby came into the game for the first time and stood next to KAT. KAT looked like a regular sized human standing next to him.
Cute lil guy
Reverse that
looks like he was telling him about what happened. props to wemby for playing i wouldn’t even get out of the house
My Grandma was my world and when she past a part of me passed with her. I miss her so much. I really feel for Wemby. That had to be so rough and then the press conference afterwords didn’t help I’m sure. RIP to Wembys grandma. May she rest in peace.
When people pass a part of us does go with them but a part of them also lives on through us
So very true! I also see alot of her in my Mom.
Wemby got us all remembering our grandmothers today
Big facts! Love to all the Grandma’s of the world alive or past.
When I got the news my grandma passed away, I was at work too so I know how Wemby feels. That shit crushes your soul knowing you’re not able to say goodbye for the last time, they’re just gone forever.
looks like Yabu found out the news
how is Yabusele doing in the NBA since the Olympics two summers ago? dude showed up against the NBA players then and you could tell he could hang in the NBA
He was a great piece for the Sixers last year and I thought picking him was a great coup for our bench. Unfortunately he’s out of the rotation right now - which sucks because we could use another physical frontcourt bench guy.
He seemed to come into camp out of shape from my eye test.
I feel like he also plays a very specific role on an NBA roster. He plays that role very well, but I think the team’s second unit has to be built around that same role for it to actually be effective.
Yeah he was terrible for us because he wasn’t quite ready for the nba yet, so he went back to the euroleague for a few years and developed further
He is a big dude with a big butt. I don’t have an opinion on his current fitness level, but I think he skews big/broad/thick.
Wemby looks so depressed here man, condolences to his family 💐
Really a warrior to get through this game
I cannot wait to see Wemby in person. I struggle to understand how he can tower over people that can tower over me.
Also, RIP Gramma Wemby
When he was drafted I immediately called my dad and told him we were gonna go see the Knicks vs spurs that year, he was confused why I was so high on this kid who never played yet
Then we got to the garden many months later and he just burst out laughing and was like “now I see”
I’ve seen him 3 times live now and he is easily the most fucked up guy I’ve ever seen in my life
Hopefully he doesn’t get injured before like the game I went to lol
The Knicks team is hard to hate, I like all of their dudes
You can lipread Yabusele asks “Ça va?” which translates to How’s it going? Which is what prompts Wemby to tell him about the death in the family.
Yeah, a good translation there would “You good?” or something like that
Great sportsmanship!
Josh Hart thinking about what a great angle he’d have to stick his thumb in Wemby’s butt.
proof that dunking on Lebron guarantees success in life
Yabusele took a 185k paycut to sign with the Knicks
ends up earning it back and more
However, it was revealed on Saturday (a day before the NBA moratorium lifted) that Yabusele had actually taken less than the full TPMLE. According to Fred Katz, his 2025-26 salary will come in at \(5.5 million, saving his new team \)185,000.
Isn’t he struggling to get minutes though?
He had to fight his way back into the NBA after the Celtics released him and he has a few short stints on some other teams
I wonder if Bronny has ever dunked on his dad
Oh he can dunk…good for him
“Noooooooo”
I think here is where Wemby tells Yab that his grandma passed away
What a classy guy man. Showing up for his team when he’s experiencing a personal tragedy, and showing respect to the winning team after the game. Hard not to love this guy.
We need to normalize players not playing not just from physical pain, but from emotional and psychological hurt as well.
oui oui mon ami
The words on this video you posted are just trolling to spur comments.
Ma grand mère est morte hier soir
Wait so if the spurs beat the thunder and the Knicks beat the Spurs, are the Knicks the best team in the league???!???
Man Yabusele was amazing in the Olympics. Big part of why France made it to the finals
I thought Yabusele was tall🤔
He is, Wemby is just a giant
Yabusele is interesting, was a terrible player in Boston, but seems like a pretty good guy, I think he just needed a few years back in the Euroleague to develop. Happy to see his success in both Philly and NY
success in ny?
I get that it’s the guys job but he’s lucky Victor is like 2 feet taller than him because it’s rude to have the camera in someone’s face when they’re mourning.
The public did not learn of his grandmother’s passing until after the game, no? You would expect the post-game floor camera man to be an insider? and also happen to understand French?
I don’t even know what I just read
No thumb up his ass??
Is this really considered a big win?
It is if your team wins, but if not then it’s trash and nobody cares about it.
It’s going to matter more and more each year
Did Wemby just say he can’t wait to join the Knicks when his contract is up?
Corny
Sorry I’m no jomboy with the lip reading I really tried
