[Lowlight] Gary Trent Jr. attempts to show why he is worth $64 million guaranteed
I’d say this contract should be investigated but it already is 😭😭
GTJ giving Exhibit A for free showing why he doesn’t deserve that much
Gary Trent really didn’t improve - that’s rough
He improved his bank account over the summer
The punishment is that they gotta keep it

I envisioned this exact title as soon as I saw this live lol
Holy chucker lmao wtf
I mean, every shot was uncovered. They just happened to be shot by a guy who sucks.
he’s a good catch and shoot guy.
it’s virtually everything else about his game that’s problematic.
If this is what he’s good at, I’d hate to see what he’s bad at.
Yeah, it isn’t the shot selection that is the problem here, it is going 0 for 3 on half open shots from the same spot in a span of 12 seconds.
That’s the stuff that they practice for hours every day.
they say never give a pro four in a row
If you keep missing maybe swing the fucking rock. Being open isn’t good enough reason to launch bullshit. They weren’t even wide open he could have created a better look.
Yeah even the GOAT shooter does that often. I mean hes never open but he’ll pass up a good look for him if he misses two in a row.
And thats exactly why he’s open lmao
classic case of “u were wide open for a reason”
Teams aren’t leaving Gary Trent wide open for a reason. He’s not that sort of player

I have no evidence to suggest this but the basketball player in me says you’re more likely to hit a 3 after having just attempted one. Maybe there’s info to suggest second FT percentage is higher than first FT which I’d put my money on.
Nothing wrong with the guy who just missed getting it back and trying it again, just didn’t fall.
worst part is he generally does nothing else much either. Not a playmaker, doesn’t pass much and isn’t anything special when he does, doesn’t rebound.
Did briefly play some tenacious point of attack defense and force some steals at one point, but didn’t keep it up.
He’s always been a chucker. He used to do this shit in Toronto.
His job is to shoot…
Y’all were so used to Porter Jr doing this shit that you think it’s normal. He shot the same contested shot on 3 possessions in a row.
Bro he was legitimately nasty here and in the bubble. I thought he was going to turn into a super high end role player
He was our second best player in the 2025 series against the Pacers. Low bar because that whole series was Giannis and bums vs. a real team, but we probably could have justified giving him $16m/yr after that without it looking like the world’s most obvious cap circumvention. Good lord has he fallen off.
He had games for the Raptors where he showed some super high potential but yeah the variance was crazy.
Their penalty should be playing him 40 min. per night.
Honestly they should make them honor his contract and still take away picks
Raptors tried it. Team was not winning shit, valid punishment.
So he missed a 3, big deal.
So he missed back to back 3’s, big deal
Oh.

r/yourjokebutworse
I liked it. He was playing along with the theme. not trying to move in on em with a less funny joke
chuck threea, chuck foura, chuck fiva…
It’s called shooting guard. Not passing guard
This what it’s like playing random rec on 2k
Except his teammates would’ve all thrown themselves to the floor
Me trying to get my 2k player 50 on the game
He’s out there trying to solve the housing crisis, one brick at a time
Reminds me of a young Rob Dillingham at UK.
fbi? yes this guy right here
Didn’t the league investigate? What were the findings?
It took like a year for the kawhi one. That’s with Pablo blasting them left and right. The bucks one will take longer without Pablo airing their shit every day.
When it doesn’t ho your way, keep chucking
first game of the year and he already had no legs
Just an off night 👍🏾
God this is so funny. I’ve watched it like 4 times already.
Wtf is this audio
Oh no, first in the history of humankind to miss three threes in a row
This happens obviously but it’s just funny because he is MASSIVELY overpaid to be a shooter who can’t shoot
Watch out Milwaukee I think Pablo Torre is gonna be on your ass
He’s a 39% 3pt shooter. I swear this sub doesn’t know shit about ball except whatever narratives they’ve heard from other clueless redditors
I mean I just find the post funny. It’s not like I’m GTJ biggest hater because of this. It happens.
C’mon, it’s funny when they all happen with like 5 seconds.
It’s not the misses it’s the shot selection lmao
While making 64 million guaranteed. Maybe the first time that sentence has ever been stated.
I am pretty sure I know one guy who missed like 10 threes in a row during the game while having a 200 million contract, and that was in play-offs btw
?? Max-contract players missed three 3s before
He’s a 25% three point shooter. Who’s fault is it the team couldn’t get three offensive rebounds and get him one more shot I ask you
Dude is worth 64 million guaranteed and people with phds can’t afford to buy some KFC.
5 more attempts of that and I would get a little annoyed as a teammate
delete
We not beating this case huh😔
Getting investigated cause youre so ass still has to be the funniest thing to happen in a while.
Dawg this is so funny
The Ultimate Tank Commander
It’s preseason. These games are suppose to be the players getting in form lol. I know fans like to overreact.
Nah, I’m pretty sure based on this clip that GTJ will shoot an efficient 00-00-00
I will only ever associate this guy with dropping the ball or of bounds and letting Tyrese hit the game winner on Giannis. Much love for gtj!
He was pretty damn scary for three or four minutes before that, but yeah, he ain’t been right since that ball drizzled between his legs.
People on this sub said that the Heats roster is not better than the Bucks
There’s no way anyone said that considering the bucks sucked even before trading Giannis
yes there were a bunch of “bucks outside of giannis is better than the heat”
idk if they were trolling or not, lot of them also said we had no shooting so idk
That is crazy considering the bucks don’t have anyone as good as Bam as a second option and also the heat at least tried to add cheap shooting with players like klay and THJ. Bucks fans stay cocky because they needed injury luck to win a chip 🤣🤣
Lmao shocker that an insecure Knicks fan has to try to discredit other champs.
it wasnt even really bucks fans lol. just heat haters i guess
Giannis going god mode and elite D from the main guys is luck now? Not like the squad was making it off of hot shooting
I didn’t make that up.
Cam Thomas could do this and at least it’d look cooler
Cam would’ve made at least one of these
Ya’ll gonna post every missed shot he ever takes?
If they all look like this? Yes please lol
top 5 in dollars per bucket, and he ain’t 5th
Should be investigated more after this
Holy shit he sucks
id be fucken pissed if i was on the floor with him lmao
Ill do that for half his salary
Are they able to nullify the contract but keep the cap hit?
It’s crazy the run he went on when he got traded to the raptors. Had me fooled.
Tank commander
All that jump and he’s struggling to hit the front of the rim
Brick after brick
This me at the park fr
idk why I thought third time would be the charm
Not my Starboy
People talk about the Siakam or OG return, or the Thad or Jak trade, but Norm for Gary easily turned out to be the most disastrous
Him and MT will lay alot of bricks
GTJ pulled a robbery with no gun.
Why exactly did they pay this guy 60+ million. I’m totally out of the loop on this one.
Wow! That’s hilarious
