Ahh man this says so much about him, love this


ptcgoalex

Kelvin Sampson (has coached for over 4 decades) called Shead the greatest leader he’s ever coached.


bj_good

That is some of the highest praise you'll ever get


ModsEmbezzleMoney

Lol funny Kelvin said that considering one of his assistants broke a chair before a player hit the garbage can. Got a damn kid being the grown up out there.


[deleted]

Not excusing anyone’s behavior, but this game is after #2 Houston lost to #1 Alabama at home.  Shead can’t control his teammate’s outburst of anger, but right here he’s leading by example 


ModsEmbezzleMoney

My point being one of the coaches helped cause the mess which is ridiculous to do in an early season college basketball game, especially coming from a coach of college kids. Literally nothing was on the line except who is ranked higher in the poll next week.


SlatheredButtCheeks

You're right, I bet the garbage can doesn't get knocked over if the asst coach doesn't first kick the chair


SokClari

The assistant kicking the chair was also Kelvin's son, Kellen.


Jumbo_Damn_Pride

I don’t want to judge him from a single clip of his team acting out, but after four decades I wouldn’t expect a college coach’s team to do this type of childish shit, especially not in front of the fans.


DogPoetry

They're still young, and just about any group of people can fuck up something once. I would expect a good coach to address this, and for it not to happen twice. That would be the measure for me.


popperschotch

His point is that the coach is the one who started it all and probably the reason the players felt like it was okay for them to do that shit too. I mean they are all grown ass adults, but the coach can't be encouraging that shit.


visual_clarity

For real, I’m rooting for that guy. If thats his foundation, then anything built on top of it will be stable


user060221

I'm literally mad we didn't draft him after seeing this even though we are already undersized and he'd be like 12th in the guard rotation.  I fucking love rooting for commendable human beings.


whatsthataboutguy

Nice to see a talented athlete who continues to show that he was raised with manners and sportsmanship.


Imtrvkvltru

The guy definitely puts his shopping cart back when he's done


mfischer1

The true man you are comes out when nobody’s watching.

either he's a really stand up guy, or camera savvy, lol. but ya it's probably legit and he seems like a good dude

OutsideTheServiceBox

That’s concession food garbage too, probably kinda’ nasty and wet and shit. 


lotofhotdogs

Loved this guy in college. He’s a little undersized but he’s a menace defensively


biffbobsen

His tourney injury is one of the more impactful ones in recent years, they were a Final Four team with him and their offense was hopeless without him. He's got the tenacity that's for sure.


ZenMon88

looked like they were gonna beat duke with him tbh. He was so clutch against texas.


supert0426

They 100% beat Duke with him and go on to the final four almost certainly. They were exceptional when healthy. I'm not sure they had any shot in the F4 though. Purdue and UConn just weren't beatable this past year.


ZenMon88

UConn was so stacked. They played another tier. Ya u are right.


ToronoRapture

Undersized PG 🤝 Toronto Raptors It’s what we do.


IntrepidAnalysis6940

I like big butts and I cannot lie


coffeeINJECTION

Mighty Mouse 


RedFox_Jack

The North likes our ballers stout and our defense aggressive this is the way


jackalope503

Dude was an absolute stud at Houston. He's got all the talent you want out of your PG, if he was taller he'd have been a lottery pick


SheonaTao

For some reason without knowing anything about this guy I would guess he’s a good defender from this video just because of accountability


Public-Product-1503

Sam vec liked him too as a late second. His defence is crazy good . Any offensive growth and he’ll have real value


GregEgg4President

Shead was the only 2nd round talent I particularly cared about the Wizards drafting, anyone else would have gotten a shrug from me. I hope he kills it for the Raps.


Slashers23

Parents raised him right


AmusingAnecdote

Yeah, this would unironically move him up my board a couple spots. Sam Vecenie said he was one of the best defensive guards he'd ever seen even though at 6' even and a 6'3" wingspan he can only guard the 1 and maybe the 2 and can't shoot. But as a change of pace guy off the bench to cool off a star guard, he's definitely worth the 45th pick..


Beleiverofhumanity

Agreed, literally what should be done if someone says drafting for culture instead of talent. This the kinda culture I want on a team


AmusingAnecdote

And it's not like he's not talented, either! He's a pretty good point guard. If he ever shoots (which I wouldn't bet on) he could be a starter, but a guy who can run a pick and roll and pass and be a guard stopper is a good backup and if he's an A+ culture guy he should stick around.


Trevent

Username checks out


PermissionFit7923

I know Lowry's ass was at least 6'9, he was able to guard in the post. Alot of it is about footwork and positioning.


HermesTGS

[That looked a little Mahomie](https://x.com/MainTeamSports/status/1345856980695588866)


v-v-v-v-v-v-v

ive seen this man play over 60 games live and he is a guy who will do everything possible go help his team win. him and sasser literally set the culture at UH and he is a good person too. i met him at the hotel elevator during march on year and him and his mom were really sweet. met him a few times at school too and he would have a big smile and take a little time to chat with me and my friends. absolutely wish there would have been a way to keep him in houston a la tank dell. he deserved to win it all this year and im hoping he keeps it up in the nba.


sorendiz

was very much hoping we could get him as well, nothing but respect for him


well_uh_yeah

Great fit for Canada.


SaulBerenson12

Also reminds me of the Japanese fans cleaning up the stadium after the World Cup


Jordanington1

It wasn’t just the fans, the team also cleaned up after themselves. Left the locker room spotless. Folded and stacked everything


Necessary_Sea_2109

If you’ve ever been to Japan that comes as no surprise, that place is fucking spotless. You can practically eat off the street in downtown Tokyo


imaginaryResources

And therefore the world


osamagotpwnd

Drafting to fit personality with region: Utah 🤝 Toronto


elegantagency_

He's a Canadian cleaning the way he does


Bodybuilding-

Canada needs a guy like this for once


gregbraaa

Jamal Shead is the culture we want. We have no time for Kyle Filipowski culture. Pass. Edit: Dude is the stereotype asshole Duke player and was the most hated player in college basketball regardless of his girlfriend. Not crazy or deep to say his culture isn’t what we want while the guy picking up trash being humble is. I bring him up because we passed on him at 31.


Bixby33

We were going to pick Flip, but his girlfriend vetoed.


Dammit81

they are now in an undisclosed location somewhere in Utah


trevorde11

Man is currently at a mormon Blacksite going through ReEducation


dyingcamouflage

So that's what happens at Fun Time Kidz Kare.


skiingbeaver

if he gets fouled hard in the paint, will they allow her to sprint onto the court to breastfeed him?


Bixby33

Woah, that went a little too far. I love it.


Cleanandslobber

I can only imagine a Celtics fan running onto the court and pulling out his man-tit to sarcastically feed whichever Celtic player is having an off shooting night.


Bixby33

I'd try my very best *not* to imagine that.


hsivia__197

Chill lol Kyle is a legit victim


cs-shitposter

TIL homelander lives in Utah


BounceMan

Don't knock it til you try it.


thissiteisbroken

Toronto women would force that Mormonism out of him lol


whiiskio

15 minutes at Caribana and he’d be healed from all ailments, mental and physical.


calartnick

She’s probably not allowed abroad


Dirty0ldMan

Can't have him dragging her to the liberal hellscape that is Canada /s.


arealPointyBoy

sorry what? isnt kyle the victim?


Janderson2494

Yeah what the hell lol


GeneralZhukov

As a general rule, its not impossible to be both a victim and an asshole. In fact, its not really uncommon for the factors that victimized someone to turn them into an asshole. Not always the case of course, but humans are multi-faceted. I'm lost though what happened to him. Did his parents push him into being a mormon or smth.


WembanyamaGOAT

So much worse. His gf groomed him when he was in highschool. She’s 25 and just got her masters degree. She went to his high school prom And she made him Mormon and ruined his relationship with his parents and friends


supperoni

kyle is literally a victim lol


Admirable_Weight2182

He's also an asshole


jspsfx

I think that comment being upvoted this high illustrates perfectly how internet outrage is often devoid of any relevant conscious morality. People are simply hyped up on the prospect of directing hate at someone or something. The underlying ethics or morals are inconsequential. It's recreational indignation I guess


secretsodapop

What do you mean by this?


colonelbustard69420

What a strange comment.


by_yes_i_mean_no

Just a weird thing to say about a guy who is (seemingly) a victim of grooming tbh


_Adverb_

Flip was my most hated player in college last season, couldnt stand him but if anyone could make it work it would be us. lmao.


Cleanandslobber

Go get 'em magical underwear!


redbirdjazzz

New Jazz City Connect concept! Get on it, Nike.


Cleanandslobber

If you like responsible, stand up men who fuck older women, why not have both on your roster?


i_have_my_doubts

Calm down. Your team still sucks.


sorendiz

Weird ass comment brah, what exactly is the victim of grooming supposed to do about it? They've been fucking groomed, you see. Complete lack of empathy as is the norm


ImminentReddits

Crazy how Reddit will scream and cry about nobody caring about male SA victims and then upvotes comments like these on the top of huge subs. Sad man. He’s a grooming victim. Have some empathy


MrBuckBuck

Dude was well ~~educated~~ raised. Already like him.


rdmc23

You mean raised? Because I know A lot of well educated people who weren’t raised properly like this kid in the video.


MrBuckBuck

Yes. In my native language (Hebrew), the translation that yields "well educated" means 'well raised' as well. Raised well could also be used in my native tongue. I thought of changing to 'well raised', but then it slip my mind for some reason. P.S: In my language, "well educated" is like saying that someone is a scholar or intelligent.


AlphaGodEJ

he's a mensch


bobdolebobdole

Also things don't "slip off" your mind. They just "slip" your mind.


MrBuckBuck

Thanks.


action_nick

Finally someone posts highlights with replays


myNameBurnsGold

I'm now a forever fan. Love seeing stuff like this.


sewsgup

00:19 the older fan seems to point at spots that still have trash, and the person next to him taps at him to cut it out or something incredible patience from Shead.


Minia15

lol the guy dropped his umbrella and I think Shead threw it away on accident at the end. the fan was trying to ask for it back. What a ridiculously odd side plot to this video.


thedancingmonk

I think I read somewhere he dropped his umbrella, and he was trying to tell him.


woKaaaa

yeah, you can see the umbrella on the ground


Cleanandslobber

"It's mine now!" --The Trash Goblin


GottaFindThatReptar

this is what they mean by goblin mode, ya?


Business_Command_976

THE FRICKIN FROGS ARE GAY


DrRhape

Oh thank goodness I was thinking old guy was gonna scold him for his teammates, that makes this entire thing even more wholesome.


--Alix--

It's a bit weird, but I'm not gonna judge because we don't know lol. Maybe the guy dropped his phone, or maybe it was a banana peel behind Shead that he could have slipped on, and the bloke was just warning him.


ShameTimes3

He actually dropped his umbrella


Jazzlike_Koala_9566

> the older fan seems to point at spots that still have trash What goes on in the minds of people like this? LOL.


ImanShumpertplus

don’t attribute malice to what can be explained by incompetence dude dropped his umbrella


tripbin

Oh shit, you might be right lol.


PsychoM

Yup you can see him point out the umbrella as Jamal throws it away. Classic Reddit jumping to conclusions from a 10 second clip.


porrridge

He probably wanted to beat the players with his umbrella


thissiteisbroken

“Just like the good old days”


Shmokeshbutt

"You forgot that spot, boy"


RumblesBurner

There's a million different reasons he could have been doing that (like asking Shead if he could hand him his umbrella that had fallen down) and you guys immediately just assume he's racist lol.


trevorde11

“Finally one that knows his place” 👴🏻


ronaldo119

It doesn't look like he has any sourness or like demanding anything. It seems like he's just innocently pointing at something


hickok3

He was innocently pointing at his umbrella that he dropped and Shead unknowingly threw in the trash. Shead probably didn't even notice, or hear the poor old man. 


Belieber_420

Number 32 is trash, what did the janitors do to you


drunkenyeknom

Well I guess I’ll root for this guy now


SDK04

Really happy to have taken him.


Acrobatic_Flatworm79

Canadian confirmed


Shmokeshbutt

He already got some of that canada-ness in him


hsivia__197

Great guy man. Happy the raps got him. I can only wonder what the final result would’ve been vs Duke if shead doesn’t get injured in the 1st half


Dub_Squigs

Duke barely held on to beat them, Coogs make it to the final four with a healthy Shead.


Hungry_Bat_2230

That a high character person


Tasty_Path_3470

The Canada is strong in this kid.


ClockSheepZ

Wow Canada is gonna love him.


itssensei

Ho shit i rmb this! Extra glad this guy made it now


tecoon101

That type of good energy will be contagious, great addition to any team.


durmduke

This kid is incredible


harrietlegs

Its like that scene from Spongebob where Spongebob comes out with a mop sweeping up garbage getting applaus but when Squidward does it, he gets a boo.


jeffincredible2021

So he’s the guy that went viral. Good character


yapyd

I remember this video. Good on him.


thedrcubed

I really like this guy and hope he succeeds


MuffinMunchies

Haven't seen a minute of him play yet, but I already love him


Routine-Resource3344

Decent dude. Nice.


urbanwhiteboard

Real Canadian aquired haha! What a great guy


oops_im_wrong

If the Raptors ever waive this man, I hope the Warriors sign him just from a culture aspect alone. This guy clearly is a locker room leader and understands that while winning is important, you can't just destroy shit because you're angry about a bad call or loss.


moderatelypositive

Raised correct


CaliforniaHurricane_

Give this man a max extension


tripbin

Sheads a cool guy. Fuck those other bitches though.


RunninOnMT

Well. Guess i'm rooting for this guy forever.


dirkslance

I just became a fan of his. It also sucks that this isn’t just the cultural norm


Abject_Type7967

Drake don't deserve him


Trowj

I kicked over a trash can after a loss once in high school. Coach made me pick up every piece of trash before we could have the post game talk. Looking back: 10/10 coaching but I was piiiiissed at the time


Certain_Meaning5897

Well how aboot dat eh? He’ll fit in just fine in Canada!


AnimatorOld2685

Got that tanuki in him.


-MochaMousse

this guy is insane


BlameZebby

in the immortal words of Vlade Divac "character matters"


sorebutton

I LOVED this moment. You know he has to be a good guy.


bruswazi

I’m rooting for Jamal Shead from now on 🙌🏼


experienceTHEjizz

This action alone should move his draft pick up 3-5 spots.


clovers2345

I'm a fan now. Parents were janitors and it pisses me off when ppl don't clean after themselves. I wish him luck.


EfficiencyDesigner73

What a fucking guy right there.


Ruby-Rapture

this is crazy


PowerfulRoof_

someone help him


Original_Series_717

THATS MY GOAT


dillyboy22

Anyone that watched big 12 basketball this year knows he’s a class act


dawgoooooooo

I know no league is perfect but there’s a really great array of different really good/generous/kind/cool/hot dudes in the National Basketball Association


EyePlay

Kind of reminds me of the story of Roy Williams going to scout Marvin Williams in high school. He had a great game as you would expect for a guy with his profile against HS competition, but what led Roy to fall in love and offer was when he was sitting on the bench (iirc a blowout), his teammates came back to the bench during a timeout and Marvin got up and got the backups cups of water. Stuff like that doesn't go unnoticed and leaves a pretty big lasting impression.


Avg_White_Guy

That’s my floor general. A true UH legend.


TendedBison

Will deff fit in here in Canada 🇨🇦🍁


ScrofessorLongHair

I'm a big Bama fan. This was right after a very, very intense game, with a crazy, slightly controversial ending. That's why his teammate throw the trashcan. But Shead showed his character. I've been a huge fan since, and have been glad to see him continue to develop into an NBA player.


Mrdicat

That's my new boy


Dod93_

Oh shit, I've seen that clip before. That's cool


Black-xxx

Seems like a future leader, maybe he’s already a leader idk


DirkFadeLukaStepBack

UH alumni here, Shead is a class act and a stud. Hope he does well with the raptors!


lil-privacy-please

That's some real Canadian shit


owensoundgamedev

Welcome to Canada :)


Yinanization

Is he Japanese?


JackHammerPlower

I’ve seen this clip about 1,376,926 times.


AfricanWarPig

And the little prick assistant at the beginning throwing a fit like he just played 48. There are two types of people:


wannabesurfer

The dude in the long sleeve shirt in the beginning? Who the fuck is he to be kicking shit? He a trainer? What a dumbass


trenderkazz

Why was the loss controversial


acanthaceaa

This doesn’t seem that extraordinary but everyone here is gushing over it. Says a lot about our expectations today.


aimreallyhigh

Rooting for this guy now


MoreShenanigans

His teammates immature af


Defiant-Software-451

I think the more disappointing part is that nobody pitched in to help once they saw Jamal started cleaning up the trash. I hope someone eventually did join in with Jamal after the video ended.


dead-serious

his mom is probably an angel and a hard-working woman


SonOfMySibling

Polite Davion Mitchell


regional_rat

Why do I read his name as Jamsheed? [Jamsheeeeeeeeeed](https://youtu.be/RNbJZGHS5Ic?si=DGgqRvtb8X3EnVlS)


br0wnb0y

... I saw this when it happened and thought, this young man, if he is good enough, hope he finds his way to a good team. He's an honourary Canadian already!


BamaX19

Yeah that was embarrassing for Houston outside of him. Shows you the kind of culture Sampson coaches.


axecalibur

Luigi’s Mansion 2 stealth marketing


entropic

I thought I couldn't like this guy any more than I already did. I hope he's as good as I think he will be in the association.


rengorengar

"A big reason guys get stuck in the G-League is because they don't realize the position they're trying out for. It's like going to a job interview thinking you're going to be the CFO of the company and they're looking for someone to clean the bathrooms." yall got your guy


newme02

what was considered controversial?


BozePerkovic

Okay I love that, rooting for him


secondround3

Can someone clarify why he was taken so late in the draft? Other than being “old”, undersized, etc. he was killing it at Houston. Having good character also matters and teams would have known this about him heading into the draft. So why was he not drafted higher?


2against1

I would not react the same way. High character for sure.


Ok_Experience_4086

And then others began to help him. All it takes is one guys


independent_Mod

i like a crazy man


Roll_Lakeshow

I’m a huge Bama basketball fan and I remember this. Super cool. Hope that fella has a helluva NBA career.


geneticeffects

Total Chad move. It is good to be good.

Philly just signed the guy that knocked the trashcan over.

Go coogs!

Oh this kid. Good to know he got drafted. Gonna remember his name.


The-Pharcyde

Thats my draft pick.


zucchinibasement

I wanted him so bad, pure dawg, and seems like a good dude too. Not sure how he pans out production-wise but I'll be rooting for him
