We're currently amidst a renaissance of of sports highlights. I grew up watching BallIsLife hoop mixtapes that were made up of clips recorded by the audience along with whatever instrumental would keep your attention the longest. And1 mixtapes were also very appealing to me because of how much effort went into the cinematography and editing of the videos. These were far from Scorsese but on an impact level there could be arguments made. Mixtapes used to be earned through being an elite talent in the country but with the accessibility of technology growing, nearly every high schooler (middle schoolers too atp) has the means of filming their own. To some people the saturation of hoop mixtapes bubble may cause them to lose interest, myself included, but then I saw this edit which caught my eye.

In case you're unaware, the person singing in the intro is Jared McCain. He was recently drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers but at the time of this recording he was a student-athlete at Duke University two days into his semester yet somehow already 3 lectures behind. The video went viral assumedly for two reasons: 1. The shock factor of a 6'3" basketball player having the charisma/vocal talent that he displays in this short video leaves you wondering with no choice but to find out more and 2. If you know anything about Duke's basketball program, you're even more confused because this is the same university where Coach K ran a strict program that left no room for any shenanigans, nevertheless antics like performing a cover of the same song (2 Days into College by Aimee Carty) for a crowd of students before playing against their biggest rival, University of North Carolina.

Impromptu Jared concert 🎶

After scrolling past the video I went about my day and paid no more attention to it than any of the other hundreds of videos I had previously watched. But then a few days later I see the same video pop up on my feed posted by someone with the username "jordy."but it only played a small snippet before abruptly switching to the audio of the official song accompanied by ~12 clips of Jared McCain being himself. This wasn't just a hoop mixtape, it was an edit; the sort of edit that almost all fandoms are no stranger to. The mainstream NBA community does not have this familiarity. McCain was already viewed as a "taboo" because of the silly controversies centered around his polished fingernails and carefree joyous attitude. This new style of edits is partially being associated with him and it's growing into new styles every day.

Jordy has a chokehold on these edits and has built a cult following of fans who have high expectations that elevate further with every new post. He's even unofficially trademarked the format of foreshadowing an edit with a obscurely related video that's so niche that you feel like it was created by someone who knows you how a friend would. These aren't the same videos that conglomerate sports outlets (ESPN, Bleacher Report, House of Highlights, etc.) post like "LeBron's Taco Tuesday" but rather, for example, a snapchat story of Zach Edey going into a room with a girl at a party followed by a series of clips representative of that moment and "Some Cut" by Trillvile as the score.

some cut #zachedey #purdue #boilermakers #ncaa #marchmadness #basketball #fyp #jordy

I'm enjoying every one of these edits and I'm so happy that others are inspired to make similar content with this new inspiration. His work has spoken for itself to the point where the athletes that he was highlighting are now fans of his content and requesting edits of their own.

made for me #jalenwilliams #munilong #okc #thunder #nba #basketball #fyp #jordy @J-DUB

If you read the comment section of any edit you're almost guaranteed to find a comment mention jordy. There's no malice attached to this comment, but instead recognition for a pioneer of this new wave. He might not be the first one to post this style of video and certainly not the first to create compilations, but he's established himself as a heavyweight in this creative space with no signs of slowing down.
