From a trip on the team bus to the airplane to the facility where players are tested for the coronavirus, Thybulle is covering it all. He is also providing fans with glimpses from the 76ers practice, and tours of hotel and rooms in which the staff and the players are living.
Matisse was skeptical about the presentation of videos
In an interview, Matisse said “I knew there would be a ton of buzz about basketball starting up and that this was something that people would be interested in, But in my mind, I’m like, ‘Am I going to be able to present it to them in a way that’s actually entertaining?’”
The videos have gone viral in no time as his youtube channel has 220k subscribers and the vlogs are also doing a decent job over the internet.
