This is Diamond. He's 6'8, has 3.1

0:03

million followers on Instagram, and a

0:05

jewelry collection worth hundreds of

0:07

thousands of dollars. He's what we call

0:09

a high school super athlete. The top

0:11

[music] 0.01% of teenagers blessed with

0:13

freakish height, elite speed, and

0:15

strength. They're built like Marvel

0:17

characters, except they're very much

0:19

real, and they have math class at 10:00

0:20

a.m. And then there's me down here. This

0:24

was me in high school. Today I'm going

0:26

to be spending the day with Diamond and

0:28

other high school [music] athletes to

0:29

see what it takes to be the best and if

0:32

I can fit in. We made it to OTE. I got

0:35

my basketball shoes on. I have no idea

0:37

why I own these. But this facility cost

0:40

$100 million to make. And looking at it,

0:43

it looks like a barn or just like a

0:45

really sick driving range for indoor

0:47

golf. But it's what's on the inside that

0:50

counts. Let's go. If there's a day to be

0:53

self-conscious about my height, it's

0:55

it's going to be today. I feel like I'm

0:56

gonna be looking up like this all day

0:58

and my neck's gonna hurt quite a bit.

1:00

>> So, we made our way inside and met up

1:02

with Sam, editor-inchief at OT.

1:04

>> See what I'm saying? How tall are you?

1:06

>> I'm 67.

1:07

>> Yeah.

1:08

>> Yeah. So, what is [music] OT?

1:10

>> So, OT is the world's best high school

1:12

basketball league. So, the best players

1:13

from actually not only all around the

1:15

US, all around the world come here.

1:16

>> So, it's not actually a high It's not a

1:18

high school.

1:18

>> Oh, no. The players do go to school

1:20

here.

1:20

>> They go to school here.

1:21

>> Yeah. So it's not it's not it like it is

1:23

partly a high school and it's accredited

1:25

all that stuff. So yeah. So so you you

1:26

leave your high school, you come here,

1:28

you learn here, you go you train here,

1:29

you eat here, all that stuff.

1:30

>> I'm already violating probation being in

1:32

a high school.

1:32

>> Yeah, I I know. I know. We have to pull

1:34

a lot of strings to get you in here at

1:36

all times. We're filming. There's

1:37

recording going on. So

1:38

>> So your privacy just goes out the window

1:40

when you come here pretty much.

1:41

>> Yeah, pretty much.

1:42

>> Okay. So kind of the GoPros in the

1:43

bathroom and stuff.

1:44

>> Uh not quite at all.

1:46

>> This is sick. Um, so this is where all

1:49

the players walk through on game days.

1:51

We have a photographer every

1:53

Oh, yeah. Okay.

1:55

>> Just walking down the first hallway of

1:56

this facility, you can already tell this

1:58

place is unlike anywhere else in the

2:00

world to develop young athletes. It's a

2:02

breeding ground for future NBA stars.

2:05

>> What separates OT from other basketball

2:06

programs?

2:07

>> Well, first of all, you'll see like

2:08

there's no other facility like this in

2:10

the world. I've been in the wait room

2:12

when like NBA guys are here and be like,

2:13

"Damn, this is better than what we

2:14

have." something that no one else even

2:16

offers close to us is the best like

2:17

branding because we start as a media

2:19

company. So we know how to like take a

2:22

player in and if you if they want to

2:24

grow their brand we can help you do that

2:25

and blow it up to a huge proportion. So

2:27

there's actually like a tangible

2:28

connection between oh can I build my

2:31

brand in high school and then how much

2:32

more money can I make in college?

2:33

>> I mean this looks like the entrance to

2:34

Hogwarts for the vertically gifted man.

2:36

This is freaking sick.

2:37

>> They're vertically gifted. That's a

2:39

manos Thompson. They were two of the

2:41

first players to join OT. They ended up

2:43

being drafted fourth and fifth. fourth

2:44

and fifth overall.

2:45

>> Yes. In the NBA draft. This is Don

2:47

Barlo. As proud we are of the Twins,

2:49

we're probably equally as proud of Don

2:51

Barlo because he actually came to OT. He

2:53

was like he like didn't have any D1

2:55

offers or anything like that. He came to

2:57

OT the first year it started before

2:59

anything was proven. He was the hardest

3:01

working guy. Him and the Twins probably.

3:02

He didn't get drafted. He signed a

3:04

two-way contract. He's been in the

3:05

league for 3 years now. Either last

3:07

night or two nights ago. 14 reins. He's

3:09

been starting for the Sixers.

3:10

>> We've all heard of the 67 meme. It

3:12

doesn't it it it doesn't mean anything,

3:14

but apparently it was originated by one

3:16

of the players here, TK, with this Tik

3:18

Tok.

3:19

>> Yeah, he's one of the top top 15 ranked

3:21

guys in the country going to Kansas next

3:23

year. Then he started his own water

3:24

brand, 67 water, which we can test

3:26

later.

3:27

>> Oo, I'm excited for that.

3:28

>> That might make you taller and jump

3:29

higher actually.

3:30

>> PH level 67.

3:31

>> PH level 67. And it might make you grow

3:33

to 67 and we're going to vertical up. I

3:34

mean, today you're going to be getting

3:35

the full like we're going to make you

3:37

into a real hooper by the time

3:38

>> height doesn't measure heart.

3:39

>> No, it definitely does. Also, one thing

3:41

one thing I want to mention, new team

3:42

this year, FaZe Clan.

3:44

>> FA like the gamer clan.

3:45

>> Yes. So, they they are the new team this

3:48

year. So, they are like kind of

3:49

sponsoring associated with the team. And

3:51

we also have Fear of God. You know that

3:53

brand? Fear of God.

3:54

>> Jerry Lorenzo.

3:55

>> Yeah.

3:55

>> That's pretty sick.

3:56

>> Yeah. So, those are two.

3:57

>> I want one of those jerseys. Those would

3:58

be sick.

3:58

>> We can work on that. Um, here's our

4:01

championship trophy. Have you heard of

4:03

Ice Box?

4:04

>> No.

4:04

>> It's like one of the most famous jewelry

4:06

places in the country. It's in Atlanta.

4:07

So, they make our championship trophy.

4:09

>> Wow. It's heavy. Don't know.

4:11

>> You can lift it. I can lift that.

4:12

>> I think you could definitely lift it,

4:13

but we might I don't know how to get in

4:15

the box.

4:16

>> Okay, so this is the practice courts.

4:18

>> These are practice courts.

4:19

>> These are just the practice courts. This

4:20

is even the best we have. All of our

4:22

teams are up there.

4:23

>> The Drifty Dreamers.

4:24

>> So, I like that one.

4:25

>> That's actually our women's basketball

4:26

week.

4:27

>> How much to sponsor a team?

4:29

>> Uh for you, I'll give you a good deal.

4:31

>> Like Tenny Donuts. They dripping Boston

4:32

cream in the center.

4:33

>> We'll give you a special deal. So,

4:35

basically, we keep track of who's taking

4:36

practice shots. So in October, Payeyton

4:39

took 6,000 shots. So he's on top of the

4:42

board

4:42

>> in one month.

4:43

>> Yeah.

4:43

>> I mean, that's like 200 per day, right,

4:45

for 30 days. That's not even including

4:47

practice or uh or games, right? Cuz this

4:51

is just like in their personal time.

4:52

>> Yeah. So for Payton, ball really is

4:54

life.

4:55

>> Definitely.

4:55

>> But it's really to hype up the guys that

4:57

are in the gym getting the most hot.

4:59

>> I think I did like 600 in a month.

5:01

>> I actually got seven, but my my laptop

5:03

broke.

5:03

>> We We'll get you on the board later. I

5:05

think hopefully we can get you to a

5:07

couple hundred today.

5:08

>> Yeah,

5:09

>> I think so.

5:09

>> This is like the basketball equivalent

5:11

to a powerlifting total. Yes, the

5:12

charts.

5:12

>> Yes, it really is. All right. So, yeah,

5:14

this is the wall where we just kind of

5:15

show a lot of the alumni. So, we got

5:17

Dom, John plays overseas, Sean plays at

5:19

Cincinnati, Kansas, Auburn. Like, you

5:22

can just see all the guys. Uh Ian played

5:24

at UNCC, then he just transferred to St.

5:26

John's. We It's hard to update these

5:28

because the guys transfer a lot, but the

5:29

point is we have a lot of guys currently

5:31

playing in college.

5:32

>> This one looks like he would just go

5:33

right through me. He's He's huge.

5:34

>> Yeah, he's

5:35

>> he's huge. [music]

5:36

>> He's like 611 7 ft.

5:37

>> Wow. He put me through a wall. I think

5:38

>> he would he would dunk on you.

5:40

>> We have a Gatorade bar here. So,

5:42

>> guys can come if you want anything.

5:44

Gatorades, protein shakes, all that type

5:47

of stuff. You can come make a shake if

5:48

you want.

5:49

>> Along with the basics, the facility also

5:51

has some pretty [music] unique features

5:53

like their very own barber shop.

5:54

>> No bad game days, no bad hair days.

5:56

>> No. Look good, play good.

5:57

>> Yeah, I can't rock a fade.

5:59

>> Oh my god, dude.

6:04

This is crazy.

6:06

>> Yeah. So, man, the lighting system here

6:09

must cost a fortune.

6:10

>> Yes. I mean, it's cost a lot to operate

6:13

this, but it's worth it.

6:14

>> Easily the [music] nicest high school

6:16

gym I've ever seen. I'm talking NBA

6:18

level lighting, cameras everywhere, full

6:21

broadcast setup. There's [music] so much

6:23

tech in here that our wireless audio

6:24

literally started cutting out.

6:26

>> This is an NBA. Like, yeah. No. No. So

6:28

the the only other arenas in the world

6:30

that have this LED system are Crypto and

6:32

Barclays.

6:33

>> How do you go about trying out for a

6:36

team or is it no tryyous

6:37

>> for the teams in Atlanta? We have scouts

6:39

that literally travel the country

6:40

looking for the top players. It's a mix

6:42

of top players but also like culture

6:43

fit, right? Cuz you want to build a

6:45

culture. Oh, look.

6:48

>> What? Read the the LED. Oh,

6:52

>> thank you. Us interacting with fans is

6:54

kind of at the core of the league,

6:55

right? It's like something that none of

6:56

the other not no other leagues in

6:58

baseball, soccer, basketball, none of

7:00

them can really do what we do. So what

7:02

we do is every year we post an online

7:05

link to try out for OT. This year we got

7:07

20,000 applicants. We go through every

7:10

single applicant and then we invite 20

7:11

of them down to OT to try out for one

7:13

spot. So we fly them down, all expenses

7:15

paid. It's basically like like a

7:17

basketball vacation for these for these

7:19

kids. We fly you down and then we do

7:21

triyouts for three days and we choose

7:22

one player to uh to to to join the

7:25

league. So, actually, we walked past him

7:26

downstairs, but Trey Nun won this year

7:28

and he's playing for a phase.

7:30

>> Um,

7:30

>> wow. The odds, May the odds forever be

7:32

in your favorite. 2 out of 20,000.

7:34

>> 2 out of 20,000.

7:35

>> Damn.

7:36

>> Yeah. So, you could try out next year.

7:37

>> I I a little bit old, though.

7:40

>> Was there technically no age limit?

7:41

>> Yeah, there's no age limit.

7:43

>> Yeah.

7:45

>> Oh, wow.

7:46

>> Dream tryyous here I come. This

7:47

definitely has to be the nicest high

7:50

school basketball facility I have ever

7:52

seen. the lighting systems, the media

7:55

room over there. Literally have these

7:57

cameras everywhere. So, you get every

8:00

single angle of the game. Section four,

8:03

we got section five. And then section

8:06

6,7.

8:08

This is the actual player locker room,

8:10

right? Um, and you should see your name

8:13

on one right over here.

8:16

Oh, yeah. Look at that. [music]

8:17

Everything in the locker room is for

8:19

you. Your training is all set. You have

8:20

all the gear you need. So,

8:22

>> there's a gear in there.

8:23

>> Yeah.

8:23

>> Here, open it up.

8:25

>> Oh, wow. Dude. [music]

8:28

Oh my.

8:29

>> Adidas sent those specifically. They

8:31

knew you were coming for to shoot this

8:32

video, so they sent those are brand new.

8:34

Like, I don't know if those are released

8:35

yet.

8:36

>> Hopefully, I can rock these, man.

8:37

>> What? I hope

8:38

>> you can pull them off. You can pull them

8:39

off.

8:39

>> Really? You think so?

8:40

>> Yeah.

8:40

>> So, it was finally time to get ready and

8:42

really become one of these super

8:44

athletes [music]

8:44

for the day. These are the brand new

8:46

Adidas Harden Volume 10s, which right

8:48

now are retailing for $210 [music] along

8:51

with a fully stocked locker with custom

8:53

Adidas outfits for onc court and offc

8:56

court training. I feel like no matter

8:57

how well it fits, it just looks

8:58

unnatural on me.

9:00

>> Well, you know, you know what it is?

9:02

Hoopers probably wouldn't wear shorts

9:03

that tight.

9:04

>> I feel like I look like a guy who like

9:05

like had like a weird like make a wish

9:07

granted or something. Like I won a

9:08

contest to be here. All right, what

9:10

next, man?

9:11

>> Let's go eat.

9:12

>> Oh, I can do that better than anyone

9:13

here. I guarantee it. Oh man. So,

9:15

there's the menu.

9:17

So, we got fried [music] chicken,

9:18

asparagus, rice. I'll get everything. I

9:21

got to hit my threes today, so I'll do

9:22

three servings [music] of everything.

9:24

>> Okay. You said three servings of

9:25

everything.

9:25

>> Yeah.

9:26

>> For real?

9:26

>> Yeah. I got to hit my threes.

9:28

>> Oh, okay. I don't know what they [music]

9:29

mean, but

9:29

>> Yeah. It's okay. Yeah. I was just trying

9:31

to be funny. Thank you.

9:34

>> Wow. That's dense.

9:37

>> Yeah. I mean, the guys are like working

9:38

out every day on a plan every day, so we

9:40

got to make sure that they're,

9:41

>> you know, eating healthy.

9:42

>> Yeah. This place is amazing so far. This

9:44

is like gourmet freaking food. All

9:46

right, so we have a lot of food here. We

9:48

have salmon, rice, pasta, fried chicken,

9:51

and asparagus. So, this is I'm eating

9:53

the meal of a 65 plus high school

9:57

basketball super athlete. And I'm a

9:59

31-year-old under 6'. So, this is like

10:03

going straight to my hips, that's for

10:04

sure. Let's give it a shot. Look at the

10:07

seasoning on here. I feel like the high

10:09

school kids don't even appreciate that.

10:15

Oh wow. Restaurant quality.

10:20

M. The rice is spiced. Super nice. Super

10:24

carb heavy. Actually pretty calorie

10:26

heavy. But when you're training as much

10:28

as them on the court in the weight room,

10:30

you need the calories. They're also

10:31

super tall. So they're like basil

10:33

metabolic rate probably like 6,000

10:34

calories or something crazy like that.

10:35

Fried chicken. Closest I'll get to a

10:38

dunk all day. that.

10:46

Oh my god, bro.

10:48

>> Yeah, as you can tell from the food on

10:50

my face and the constant facial

10:51

expressions, this is ridiculously

10:53

highquality cafeteria food. You can tell

10:55

there's a lot of care that goes into it.

10:57

With a rotating menu every day, these

10:59

kids are getting all the nutrition they

11:01

need to be training for hours a day.

11:03

>> Little asparagus.

11:09

M

11:11

got to make my pea smell. That's all

11:13

right. It seems like they go above and

11:14

beyond. Add a bunch of seasoning. It's

11:16

not just boring plain chicken, plain

11:18

salmon. They have some like Cajun spice

11:21

there. So, like, you know, they're

11:22

trying. They want to make the kids enjoy

11:24

the healthier foods, which is good. So

11:25

along with the food over there, there's

11:27

also this snack area here where these

11:30

these apple cinnamon like organic mushed

11:34

up applesauce kind of things that look

11:36

really good. Wow, that looks really

11:37

good. Then there's these soft and chewy

11:40

granola bars, popcorners, a healthier

11:43

chip alternative, which is nice. Got

11:45

another protein bar, Pringles, jerky,

11:50

muscle milks, Gatorade nutrition shakes,

11:54

and then over here, what's in here?

11:58

What is this? Mini pizzas. Look at this.

12:00

Mini pizzas.

12:03

290 a pop.

12:08

Uncrustables.

12:09

I've never had an Uncrustable before.

12:12

Can I have an Uncrustable?

12:12

>> Yeah. Yeah.

12:13

>> You just You eat it frozen? Yeah, you

12:14

just eat it like that. Oh, actually,

12:15

wait a minute. I think maybe you pop

12:17

that in the in the in the the thing.

12:19

>> No, I go raw, man.

12:20

>> Really?

12:21

>> Yeah, let's go raw.

12:24

>> Good.

12:24

>> That was good. Let's go with that. I

12:26

>> I've actually never had one.

12:28

>> So far, from what I've seen from the

12:29

court, the food, and even the gear, I

12:32

just had to know how much does it cost

12:34

players to even be here. So all the

12:36

players who are here on scholarships, we

12:37

have 31 players in the building like

12:39

they're all here for for basketball

12:41

obviously in the academics too but like

12:42

yeah none of them pay any money.

12:44

>> Wow. And like all their like housing is

12:46

paid for and everything too.

12:47

>> Yeah. Everything's paid for. The league

12:48

is makes money through like sponsorship.

12:50

So it's sponsored by Gatorade, State

12:52

Farm, all Adidas, all that stuff. So

12:54

that's how we make money and then we

12:56

able to to provide, you know, everything

12:57

else for free for

12:59

>> Next [music] up on the to-do list was to

13:00

visit the weight room.

13:02

>> Wow, this gym is so sick. Everything's

13:04

custom. So, you got OT up there [music]

13:06

and then even OTE

13:10

on the plates right there. Again, it's a

13:11

lot more of an athletic performance gym.

13:13

There's not a lot of machines. So, in

13:15

terms of machines, we got a leg press.

13:18

Don't know what that is. The dumbbells

13:20

actually go to 125. Dumbbells to 125 at

13:23

a high school is crazy.

13:25

I don't think I've ever seen a high

13:26

schooler lift those. So, I wonder who

13:28

would be lifting the 125s. It ain't

13:30

about just basketball.

13:33

Yes, it is. Then we got this, which I'm

13:35

imagining is to like test your reflexes.

13:37

So, we got a bunch of the different

13:40

balls here. So, you got like

13:49

And then each rack comes with a belt for

13:53

weighted pull-ups. You got a trap bar

13:55

here. We got some bumper plates on the

13:57

side. So again, a lot of explosive

14:00

movements, a lot of functional

14:01

movements, and not a lot of bodybuilding

14:03

cuz you don't really need to be jacked

14:04

[music]

14:05

to be a good basketball player. But

14:07

they're all jacked for some reason, I

14:08

guess. Like look at LeBron. LeBron

14:10

definitely does a push pull leg split

14:12

100%. It's a sick gym. I love the

14:14

colors. I love the light blue and the

14:16

orange. [music] It's not my ideal gym,

14:19

but it's it's it does its purpose.

14:21

Obviously, they're building some crazy

14:22

athletes here, and this is all that you

14:24

need. You don't need anything fancy.

14:26

>> For today's offc court workout, I'm

14:28

joining TK, one of the top prospects in

14:30

the entire country.

14:31

>> Nice shoot.

14:33

>> Head performance coach James is going to

14:35

be taking us [music] through a workout

14:36

starting with something very unfamiliar

14:38

to me.

14:38

>> They locked in. I'll be bringing plates

14:41

to you until you feel like it's too many

14:43

plates.

14:44

>> It's a competition between the two of

14:45

us.

14:45

>> Oh, it is. [laughter]

14:46

>> Oh, man. So, what is basketball training

14:48

like? Cuz it's not that much obviously

14:49

bodybuilding. It's more like functional

14:50

like

14:51

>> uh we lift. We lift. She can split squat

14:53

almost 300 lb.

14:55

>> Split squat.

14:55

>> Yeah.

14:56

>> Three plays.

14:57

>> Yeah, that's more that three plays is

14:59

more than 300.

15:00

>> That's 315, man.

15:01

>> Yeah.

15:01

>> Pretty crazy to think at 17 he can split

15:03

squat 315 lbs. That's elite level

15:07

strength. It just goes to show the

15:08

training is [music] ultra specialized to

15:10

the sport.

15:12

[laughter]

15:12

>> I mean, I'm used to 200 on me, man.

15:18

>> [laughter]

15:21

>> I don't know if I can do this.

15:22

>> Flex those glutes, man.

15:25

>> D. I need this 45. I just went like that

15:27

now.

15:27

>> You t You tapping out already.

15:29

>> You need to tap one out.

15:30

>> Oh, come on. [laughter]

15:32

>> Ah, James. Come on. Put it on, man.

15:34

>> Put it on.

15:34

>> Let's go.

15:35

>> Let's do it.

15:38

>> Let's do it. Another.

15:39

>> All right.

15:40

>> I like it.

15:41

>> Don't worry, man. You're going to cook

15:42

me on the court, so it's all good. He

15:44

got it.

15:45

>> Okay, we're in. That's it.

15:46

>> That's it. One more.

15:48

>> One more.

15:49

>> Yeah. Go.

15:49

>> One more. One more. You might as well.

15:52

You got it.

15:53

>> Yeah.

15:56

>> Just lay down.

15:56

>> Yeah.

15:57

>> Next, we did a quick [music] race with

15:58

the sleds on the turf.

15:59

>> Oh, that was a cheap starting game.

16:05

There you go. Swiss it.

16:09

Oh, no.

16:14

Yeah. Yeah. This one red. Make it look

16:17

good.

16:19

This one was red.

16:21

[laughter]

16:23

There we go.

16:23

>> Yeah, man. Couldn't find the hole on the

16:26

other side.

16:26

>> Yeah, I couldn't either. Oh, what

16:28

happened?

16:29

>> After losing the sled race, all I knew

16:31

is I need to start doing cardio. I was

16:33

way too gassed for just [music] being

16:34

one lap.

16:35

>> Do you tell me? Holy I'm out of

16:37

breath. So, 67. What is it? I don't know

16:41

what that is.

16:42

>> It's nothing. There is a part of the

16:44

song and I said it.

16:46

>> And that's how that's how it took off.

16:48

>> It will.

16:48

>> You want this or no?

16:50

>> No.

16:50

>> No.

16:51

>> My man.

16:52

>> That's what I'm talking about.

16:52

>> Yeah.

16:57

>> Hang out there.

16:58

>> How long we got to hold this for?

16:59

>> Hey, we'll see who jumps out first. You

17:01

got it.

17:03

>> Oh my goodness.

17:04

>> For the players, is there like a fitness

17:05

test that they have to do and pass?

17:07

>> We do yo-yos. We do three runs. Three

17:09

rep maxes on everything.

17:11

>> Three. Three rep maxes.

17:12

>> Why is that?

17:13

>> Just because one, like I'm I'm dealing

17:15

with a lot of guys who haven't lifted

17:17

before. Through rep max is is just I

17:20

think this is a much better introduction

17:22

to it than trying to just say go as

17:26

heavy as you can.

17:27

>> Yeah. Right away.

17:28

>> All right. Next one. The wider your

17:30

feet, the easier it is. Try to get kind

17:33

of narrow. Big push. And you have to

17:36

reach down. Touch the floor and touch.

17:40

Touch the floor and touch. Come on, man.

17:43

Compete. Compete.

17:46

>> Oh, man. That's hard. Just do first to

17:48

five.

17:48

>> First to five.

17:49

>> First to five.

17:50

>> Go.

17:54

There you go. There you go. Good. Yeah.

18:00

Yeah.

18:03

>> Oh, follow me on this side. It just made

18:05

me realize how horrible my right side

18:07

is.

18:07

>> Yeah.

18:08

>> I'm like right side dominant. I thought

18:09

>> Yeah.

18:10

>> So, how often are players training?

18:12

>> Four times a week.

18:13

>> Okay.

18:14

>> All year long.

18:15

>> Okay. Is it like a full body split?

18:18

>> Yep. We'll do six reps is the max number

18:22

of reps that we'll do. Something for

18:24

lower body, something for upper body

18:25

every day. We'll do some core work every

18:27

day. And we do a lot of movement stuff.

18:29

So, you know, lots of jumping and

18:31

changing directions.

18:33

Oh my dad hang

18:34

>> to hang on

18:36

the big boy wall.

18:39

>> That's girthy now.

18:40

>> 3 2 1 go.

18:44

>> But you know my head is terrible.

18:50

>> You can't be already. Come on, man.

18:52

Let's go. Come on.

18:54

>> Baby hands. [music]

18:59

>> Get back to the Get back to the normal.

19:01

Yeah. Yeah.

19:06

At the end of the workout, I [music] was

19:07

feeling a bit cocky with how well I did.

19:09

So, I wanted to see how I'd stack up

19:11

against TK in a vertical jump one v one.

19:14

>> I'll I'll one v one you right now.

19:17

>> I mean,

19:18

>> hey, that's what I'm talking about.

19:19

>> I got nothing to lose. Only he has

19:20

everything to lose.

19:23

>> This is like Jake Paul versus AJ right

19:25

now. I got nothing to lose. No, you're

19:27

going first.

19:27

>> Me?

19:28

>> Yeah, cuz I I got to see your form.

19:30

>> Okay. I'm built for lateral. It's not

19:32

vertical.

19:32

>> Go

19:37

155.

19:38

>> I think I need to get the pocket ruler

19:39

for that one. That was pretty low.

19:41

>> Stand still. Go.

19:45

[music]

19:47

>> 168.

19:48

>> What?

19:49

>> Go.

19:51

Hell no. That's 13.

19:55

>> You're very consistent. You're very

19:58

consistent. You better go get that

20:00

one-on-one game. Redeem yourself.

20:02

>> I made my first shot of the day. [music]

20:04

I beat his vertical. Is it possible I

20:06

beat the best high school player in the

20:08

country on the court?

20:09

>> Who do you model your game after?

20:10

>> Tyrese Maxi.

20:11

>> Who?

20:12

>> Tyrese Maxi.

20:13

>> Okay. I'm like Airbud.

20:15

>> Who?

20:15

>> You don't know Airbud?

20:16

>> No.

20:16

>> The game is first to three and it was

20:19

quite possibly the fastest game of 1v1

20:21

ever. I'm going [music] to stick to the

20:24

wait room.

20:26

With the offc court training done for

20:27

the day, it was time for the onc court

20:29

training where I'll be joining high

20:30

school's most famous athlete, Diamond.

20:32

[music]

20:33

>> So, I'm on the court now with Diamond.

20:34

And speaking of that, you have a pretty

20:36

like legit jewelry collection, don't

20:37

you?

20:38

>> A little bit. You should come to the

20:39

cube. I'll show you. I know. I just got

20:40

to reach Millie 2 days ago.

20:42

>> I have no idea what that is. So, I saw

20:43

you have 3.1 million followers on

20:45

Instagram.

20:45

>> Yeah.

20:46

>> So, like for being a high schooler, like

20:48

your DMs must be crazy.

20:50

>> A little bit.

20:50

>> Like even if you peaked in high school,

20:51

that's a flex.

20:52

>> A little bit.

20:53

>> Like I would have dropped out to 1

20:54

million, I think. So, what do you like

20:55

about OT?

20:56

>> Uh, for me as a basketball player, you

20:58

got all the tools that you need. Got

21:00

amazing NBA facilities, access to

21:03

coaches every day. The gym is open 24/7,

21:06

a lot of exposure, cameras on us 24/7.

21:09

So, me knowing how important is uh

21:11

social media for a player, not only for

21:14

exposure, but for the clips that you can

21:16

get to send over to coaches to get some

21:18

new views, you at the right place. So,

21:19

we're going to go on the court now.

21:20

Shoot. Bless.

21:25

I'm surprised

21:33

[laughter] trade him.

21:34

>> After making those two shots, I [music]

21:36

can feel it. I'm starting to heat up.

21:38

So, hopefully that's a little glimpse of

21:39

what's to come during my session with

21:40

head coach Cory Frasier. First thing

21:42

[music] we started with for warm-up is

21:44

some ball handling drills. Only using

21:46

your right hand on the way up the court

21:47

and then [music] your left hand on the

21:49

way back. Then we did these things which

21:51

clearly I was struggling a [music] lot

21:53

with.

21:54

>> Two place.

21:55

>> What that?

21:56

>> You see diamond? This is dribbling. It

21:58

looks [music] simple. It's not. It takes

22:01

coordination, timing, rhythm. None of

22:04

which [music] showed up with me today or

22:06

ever. With that stuff out of the way, it

22:08

was finally time to start putting the

22:10

ball in the net. Starting with a layup

22:12

drill.

22:16

>> I would love to be able to dunk like

22:17

that, but I just can't. And I'm blaming

22:19

genetics.

22:20

>> Good. There you go. I know. That's not

22:22

happening.

22:23

>> And we did this similar type of drill at

22:24

all areas of the court, shooting from

22:26

many different spots.

22:27

>> Right there in front of the rail. Nope.

22:29

You're going to be here after two

22:31

basketballs. You're going to be using

22:32

your legs to push through my hands. Make

22:35

sense? Now you're going to be use your

22:37

legs and drive through.

22:39

There you go.

22:43

Damn.

22:46

Look at the hands.

22:51

>> Crazy hand eye coordination.

22:53

>> There were so many drills we had to do

22:54

where we were confined to only using one

22:56

hand, training them both to be equally

22:58

as dominant, so we have no weak points.

23:01

This drill that you're seeing where I

23:02

pass the ball to Diamond, then Cory

23:04

gives me the ball for the shot was

23:05

something we ran for a very long time.

23:08

Cory wouldn't let us move on until I

23:09

made a shot. And I was wasn't making

23:12

anything.

23:14

Make

23:15

one

23:18

smart.

23:21

>> There it is.

23:24

>> That's it.

23:25

>> Oh, perfect shot.

23:29

>> That was like five times.

23:30

>> Then we worked on our threes from behind

23:32

the line.

23:33

>> Am I going till I get two in a row?

23:34

>> No, you need to make two more. Make two

23:36

three. Got to go two. There you go.

23:39

You're holding out, man. One more. One

23:42

more. One for the row.

23:46

>> To finish off this workout, Cory had a

23:48

little surprise for us.

23:49

>> Right hand down, left hand back. You got

23:51

to finish with a free throw. Then it's

23:53

got to be a switch to get out your

23:55

drift.

23:56

>> Okay. Switch.

23:57

>> All right. Go down. Back. Go. Right

24:00

hand.

24:03

You see him, bro?

24:08

Yo, switch.

24:10

No, you're up. Almost.

24:13

Nope.

24:14

>> Why? Why does it have to be a Swiss?

24:16

It's

24:16

>> the best way to finish.

24:17

>> I mean, I like a rim job.

24:19

>> You might like it. I don't think I can

24:21

say that, but

24:22

>> fingering the rim, remember?

24:24

>> Q.

24:25

>> Yeah.

24:26

>> There it is. Yes.

24:27

>> Yeah.

24:29

>> Ready? We got to get our thought to

24:30

finish pumpkin.

24:36

>> Got the chair for me.

24:38

>> Yes.

24:39

>> One v one. First of three. Yeah.

24:41

>> I'm out.

24:43

My ball. Of course my ball. No. No.

24:44

That's my ball, bro. Come on.

24:49

>> What's on the line here? I get I got

24:50

some of your jewelry. I I got your

24:52

necklace. I got your new necklace.

24:53

>> Yep.

24:59

That's you.

25:04

All right.

25:12

the other day.

25:18

[music]

25:25

>> She's

25:27

got down.

25:34

[laughter]

25:35

>> At least I didn't get a zero. So, yeah.

25:37

Okay.

25:37

>> I was impressed about your level.

25:39

>> Really, bro? People told me about you.

25:43

Super strong.

25:44

>> Yeah.

25:44

>> You think I was going to be too

25:45

coordinated?

25:46

>> Yeah. Strong people, not so all the

25:48

time. I was I was surprised.

25:49

>> Really?

25:50

>> You think if I had like a year, I'd be

25:51

okay. Can I play in the league?

25:52

>> Actually,

25:53

>> in the league, I don't know.

25:54

>> I suggest

25:56

>> maybe two years.

25:56

>> I feel like I can rebound pretty hard.

25:58

>> Pretty hard. I think so. And you're

25:59

strong. People don't like strong people.

26:00

We don't like you to fight so much in

26:01

basketball.

26:02

>> Oh, you don't?

26:02

>> Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

26:04

>> I I have to. I do. Yeah.

26:05

>> I don't like it though.

26:06

>> How many shots a day you take?

26:08

>> Uh, mostly about 1,000.

26:10

>> 1,000 a day.

26:11

>> We got a shooting machine right there.

26:13

>> Yeah.

26:13

>> Whenever. We don't shoot every day

26:15

because of the how many practice we

26:16

have.

26:17

>> I think you're captain, bro.

26:18

>> No.

26:18

>> Yeah, because why you're not on that

26:19

list over there?

26:19

>> I am. I'm definitely.

26:20

>> No, you're not. You're a bro. Payton's

26:22

up there, man.

26:23

>> Right here.

26:26

>> 20, dude. Come on.

26:28

>> I was top three last week. I I got

26:30

proof. I'm filling my phone right now. I

26:31

got proof.

26:32

>> Chat GPT. make it look like I got 8,000

26:35

shots.

26:36

>> Look, I was here tough, too.

26:38

>> He's He's telling the truth. Was it ever

26:40

a challenge like with all like the

26:41

publicity and like the followers like to

26:43

like let it get to your head and like

26:44

take over your game in any way?

26:46

>> I don't think so. I was um in France it

26:48

was really apolic kind of like me being

26:50

so exposed at a young age. My coach is

26:52

like my main thing was sharing my

26:54

lifestyle as a basketball player and my

26:55

coach wouldn't let me do a Tik Tok in a

26:57

in a gym. So, I had to sneak in and do

26:59

it. I would like my coach here never see

27:01

me do a Tik Tok. It's like I kind of got

27:02

that trauma from like doing my stuff on

27:05

my side whenever I got some free time,

27:06

but I never miss both.

27:08

>> All right, so we're doing some recovery

27:09

with Cam.

27:10

>> Yes, sir.

27:11

>> How old are you?

27:12

>> I'm 16 years old.

27:13

>> What the How tall are you?

27:15

>> Uh with shoes on? Uh 66.

27:17

>> 66.

27:17

>> Yeah. So now I'm probably like 6'5.

27:19

>> So besides being a teenager, what do you

27:20

guys do for recovery?

27:21

>> Cold tub, hot tub. Um and like I said,

27:23

you can go with your trainer and then

27:24

they'll stretch you, do mobility with

27:26

you, all stuff. Yeah.

27:27

>> Nice. I don't think I've ever done these

27:28

before.

27:29

>> You never done them?

27:30

>> No. Just grab.

27:31

>> Yeah, grab anyone.

27:32

>> All right. I need three of them. Subtle

27:34

flex. I can barely wrap this around my

27:36

quad.

27:36

>> The buttons right here. You turn it on

27:40

>> and then depending on how much time you

27:41

want to do. We can probably do what? We

27:43

can do 15.

27:43

>> 15. Yeah.

27:44

>> Yeah.

27:45

>> You click it to 15.

27:45

>> Oo. This got a good vibration to it.

27:48

Kind of want to Do you feel like out of

27:50

place when you're trying to buy all

27:51

these like talent?

27:52

>> I play better when I'm playing with or

27:55

against so much more better people. Um,

27:58

I just feel like my game elevates as the

28:00

time go on with those good people. If

28:02

I'm playing down to my competition, I

28:04

feel like I'm going to play down to my

28:06

competition. I won't play as good. So,

28:08

um, I feel like that's not the greatest

28:10

mindset to have, but like based on like

28:12

my life so far, like that's just what

28:14

it's been. So, when I do play against

28:15

really really good people, I just get

28:17

better.

28:17

>> Yeah. Now, this this stuff this stuff

28:19

does work. I would say that. Um,

28:21

>> but I do like cryo and cold punch a lot

28:23

more. I don't do that.

28:24

>> You don't do cry punch?

28:25

>> Antifold.

28:26

>> Really? What's that?

28:27

>> Anti- cold.

28:28

>> Oh. Oh, you don't do no cold at all. Oh,

28:30

okay.

28:31

>> Dang.

28:31

>> I can't afford any more shrinkage.

28:32

>> Well, norm like the all it does is just

28:36

>> it really like

28:36

>> it's really just a blood. This is a

28:38

blood flow getting blood flow there and

28:39

then

28:39

>> feels like mom's warm embrace.

28:41

>> Yeah. No, that's fact. I miss my mom.

28:42

I'm not going to lie. It's tough being

28:43

away from home down here. Um I do live

28:45

with my dad apartment over here.

28:48

>> Um

28:48

>> you you got to miss mom's cooking,

28:49

right?

28:50

>> Yes.

28:50

>> Yeah. What she cook up for you?

28:52

>> She cooks anything. Mama My has a food

28:53

truck.

28:54

>> No. No way. I swear she has a food

28:56

truck. So food

28:57

>> she does like she mainly does like soul

28:59

food. So that's like fried chicken, mac

29:01

and cheese.

29:01

>> Yo, shout her out. What's her food truck

29:03

name?

29:03

>> Uh her food truck is a little taste of

29:04

soul. Um she don't know where it's like.

29:06

It's just Cincinnati, Ohio. Um

29:08

>> yeah, go check it out. Pivoting back to

29:10

basketball here. Do you have a life

29:11

outside of basketball or is basketball

29:13

your life?

29:14

>> Everybody here, we be we're so tired

29:15

after like these three days and

29:17

sometimes four days if you wake up early

29:18

in the morning. So like resting is the

29:21

best thing. So, like when I'm sitting in

29:22

the house and I'm not really doing much,

29:24

I watch basketball a lot. So, my my

29:26

whole life's basketball.

29:27

>> Yeah. Like I said, I've been doing this

29:28

since I was three. Um, not at the

29:30

highest level, of course. I probably

29:31

wasn't the greatest when I

29:32

>> Fisher Bryson, bro. You're just What do

29:34

you think separates OT from other

29:35

basketball programs?

29:37

>> Just the amount of time that we have in

29:39

the gym. Um, we go to school for like 4

29:41

hours. So, I would think like shortening

29:42

your school days, I think, is better.

29:44

Yeah.

29:44

>> Um, going to school for like 7 hours, I

29:46

think, is kind of kind of crazy. I feel

29:48

like you're not going to take as much

29:49

stuff. you're not going to learn as much

29:51

stuff. Like I'm not going to use this in

29:52

the real world in my opinion. Some of

29:54

the stuff you'll use in the real world,

29:55

but majority of it you're kind of just

29:57

being babysitted in my opinion. And we

30:00

use all that access time, that extra 3

30:02

hours, we're using that here. We're

30:03

moving that to the court. So kind of

30:05

like time management. I think that's

30:06

what separates OT.

30:07

>> Yeah.

30:08

>> Recovery session with Cam was so much

30:10

fun. What blew me away was not only his

30:12

mindset, but also how well spoken he was

30:14

for just being 16 years old. Other

30:17

recovery options include a full

30:18

physiootherapy area to get all kinds of

30:20

work done, no matter the issue, as well

30:22

as a massive hot tub [music] and cold

30:24

tub. We just finished the recovery and

30:26

now it's time to refuel. Look at this.

30:28

You just come take as many as you want.

30:31

This place truly feels like it's an NBA

30:35

team facility. It's actually insane that

30:37

these high school kids have access to

30:39

this for for no cost at all. Like free

30:43

muscle milks, it's even worth it then. I

30:45

still prefer Powerade, but I think we

30:47

can all agree that water sucks. There's

30:50

even this room, which you literally do

30:51

not see unless you're a pro athlete, and

30:53

that is when you just come and sit with

30:54

your team and you watch game film from

30:57

the last game. And you have your coach

30:59

up there. You look like past plays, what

31:01

do you want to do next game? So, this is

31:03

like a really cool thing to learn going

31:05

into the next game. And then right next

31:07

door, you have this studio, green

31:09

screen, the white infinity wall over

31:12

there, another thing over there. So,

31:14

every single player gets a media day

31:17

where they do the head shot, video, just

31:19

like a professional athlete, which is

31:20

incredible. The amount of money and time

31:23

they spend on each individual player is

31:25

unlike anything I've ever seen before.

31:26

So, I came to my locker, open it,

31:29

[music]

31:30

and there's a new Fear of God Adidas

31:32

basketball shoes just sitting here

31:34

waiting for me. And I didn't even ask

31:35

for them. Oh, look at those.

31:38

Those are clean. Look at that on the

31:41

back in the red. [music]

31:43

Fear of God. This is just a regular day

31:46

for these athletes. They just come to

31:47

their locker, boom, a new pair of shoes.

31:50

I don't even know how much these are.

31:51

[music] Probably a lot. So, they are

31:54

treated like pro athletes early on from

31:56

like 14, 15 years old all the way up

31:59

until when they get drafted. They go to

32:01

play college, which I think is actually

32:02

beneficial. Like, if you're treated like

32:04

this now and you feel like there's all

32:06

this pressure, [music] you have access

32:07

to all these things. The adjustment to

32:09

the next level is not that bad. It feels

32:12

the exact same. So, they're getting them

32:14

ready early. They do media training for

32:15

them so they know exactly what they need

32:17

to do, what they need to say, how they

32:19

say it. Learn to be respectful. So,

32:21

they're setting all these kids up for

32:22

insane success and spoiling them while

32:25

they do it. The last stop of the day

32:27

surprisingly isn't another workout. It's

32:29

actually media training. For 15 to 20

32:31

minutes a few times a week, players are

32:33

put in situations to get them

32:34

comfortable talking in front of cameras

32:36

and answering questions. Today I'm

32:38

joined with Anderson for a mini podcast.

32:40

>> Anderson, if you were to look at Will

32:42

right now.

32:43

>> Yeah.

32:44

>> Um,

32:45

where do you see him fitting in on a

32:47

basketball court? What position do you

32:48

think he play?

32:48

>> The water boy.

32:51

>> He wants to say it. I know he does.

32:52

>> He might be like the one. No, he's not

32:55

big, but he's strong. You could be the

32:57

one.

32:57

>> You call me the one.

32:59

>> Yeah, you have to be the one cuz

33:02

[clears throat]

33:02

>> Oh, I I don't think I can. So

33:05

>> 67 water.

33:07

M

33:09

[snorts]

33:10

tastes good. 67 [music]

33:12

minerals.

33:13

>> What's the first thing you would fix in

33:15

a basketball player's diet?

33:18

>> Oh, man.

33:22

>> I guess Anderson, tell him like

33:23

>> Yeah. I don't know what he eats. I just

33:25

I saw him crushing Jolly Ranchers, bro.

33:27

>> It's terrible. Well, go from what I ate

33:28

today.

33:29

>> Sure.

33:30

>> Yeah. I barely even ate today. Uh candy,

33:33

snacks, Gatorade. I was just [music]

33:36

fried chicken and uh spaghetti though.

33:38

>> Listening to Anderson list off his meal

33:40

plan for the day. I I mean it it just it

33:42

made me feel really old and it was also

33:44

very painful hearing how little protein

33:46

he's consuming which made me think of

33:48

only one thing.

33:49

>> We just finished the podcast with

33:50

Anderson and it's pretty crazy to hear

33:52

his diet of just candy juice and fried

33:56

chicken. It could definitely be better.

33:58

So we're looking at the snacks right

34:00

now. I am starving. They got the protein

34:02

bars here. 190 calories, 10 g protein.

34:06

Could it be better? Absolutely. That's

34:08

why I always bring with me wherever I go

34:11

a David protein bar. 150 calories, 28 g

34:15

of protein. So, less calories and nearly

34:17

triple the protein of another protein

34:19

bar. It tastes delicious. I even think

34:21

Anderson would eat this. He just likes

34:23

candy. He would love this. This just tra

34:25

like straight up cookie dough. So, this

34:27

is the highest protein to calorie ratio

34:29

protein bar on the planet. You can only

34:31

get protein to calorie ratio like this

34:34

in cod and and I'm not bringing cod with

34:36

me on the plane anywhere. That's just

34:38

disgusting. It's so good. The texture is

34:41

unbeatable. So, this is one of my

34:43

favorite flavors, the chocolate chip

34:45

cookie dough flavor. If you guys want to

34:47

try them out, first link in the

34:49

description. You will not be

34:50

disappointed.

34:52

I got to spend the day with some of the

34:54

best high school athletes in the entire

34:55

world. Full of raw talent. But now, it's

34:58

time to go back to real life. my

35:00

31-year-old self, but still taking shots

35:03

because prime or not, shooters got to
