A career-ending injury became a channel-launching moment.
Born Kristopher Obaseki on April 3, 1993 in London, England, he grew up chasing a professional basketball dream at his height of 6'10". He was recruited as a college player at Oral Roberts and Newman University — an official credit in his NBA.com Creator Cup bio.
Then the medical reality hit: a career-ending injury closed the pro door. So he did what creators do — he turned the setback into content. He launched his YouTube channel on Aug 10, 2012 and kept going for more than a decade.
