In the world of basketball trends come and go that come and change an entire generation of basketball in the United States, sometimes for the good, and sometimes for the bad. But in the 2020’s, one thing I know that reigns supreme is the surge of social media and its effects on the basketball world itself. Recently in a video made by Austin Rivers he mentioned how "Highlight Culture" is ruining the NBA and the sport of basketball due to it's many negative promotions. Whether it is the promotion of bad, flashy, and inefficient basketball, the promotion of anyone can get a mixtape if they pay for it rather than to earn it like he did, or how it is ruining basketball in the NBA because now the NBA is starting to become littered with these people who grew up in that generation who bring zero defense, zero good basketball habits, and zero basketball IQ, and even how European Prospects will soon run the NBA and the World in basketball due to this. This is the subject we'll discuss today with many faces making appearances for their part in the movement like Mikey Williams, Jalen Green, Ja Morant, DJ Wagner, and many more.
