Quinn Cook came to Duke after a knee injury, and it took him a little while to regain his high school form. Then in his senior season, Cook did something pretty rare and highly impressive: he accepted freshman Tyus Jones taking over his natural position, point guard. Not only did he accept it, but he put the success of the team first and became a valuable mentor to Jones. The result? Duke won the 2015 national championship, Jones was the MOP, and Cook endeared himself to the fan base like few others. He has been a marginal player as a professional, but he has more rings (two) than any other former Blue Devil other than Shane Battier, who also has two. In this tape from his Oak Hill days, you can see Cook’s point guard instincts. He makes some absolutely beautiful passes here, and as you may have noticed, we see passing as the greatest basketball skill of all. Just look at how advanced he is here. It’s insanely impressive.

YouTube may have started as a site to share home videos, but now it’s one of the most powerful platforms in the world: From entertainment to advertising, it’s spawned billion-dollar careers and birthed a global creator economy, turning individuals like MrBeast into household names. But when its founders sold the popular video platform to Google for $1.65 billion in fall 2006, not even they could have predicted just how massive it would become—or how much more they could have made. At the time of sale, each cofounder—Chad Hurley, Steven Chen, and Jawed Karim—received millions of dollars worth of stock: Hurley, YouTube’s CEO at the time, received shares worth some $345 million by the time the Securities and Exchange Commission documents were released a few months later, according to The New York Times . Chen, its CTO, received some $326 million worth and Jawed Karim, who left the venture early to go back to school, got $64 million worth. “This is great,” Hurley said in a video posted when the sale was announced. “Two kings have gotten together. The king of search, the king of video have gotten together. We’re going to have it our way.” YouTube’s sale price to Google

YouTube is by far the dominant digital streaming player in Japan, new research shows. Behavioral data from AMDP Analytics shows that the Google video platform commands more than 65% of Japan’s video-on-demand hours, with news and baseball leading the way genre-wise. AMPD‘s YouTube dashboard intelligence tool shows Japanese audiences watched 2.8 billion hours of content on YouTube in May, which is 38.5 hours per viewer. “Japan’s YouTube viewing looks far more like television than people assume — long-form content dominates, audiences are spread across every age group, and engagement peaks at nine in the evening. YouTube isn’t competing at the edges of the screen economy in Japan; it’s operating at its centre,” said Sam Yousif, Managing Director of AMPD Analytics. In terms of viewing trends, ANNnewsCH, TBS News Dig and 日テレNEWS networks led the way, ahead of entertainment brand Oricon. In sports, three channels – PacificLeagueTV (Pacific League baseball), Pivot and SPOTVNOW – lead the way in both free and paid-for streaming, with DAZN Japan and horse racing channel JRA also strong in the free space.

Popular on Variety The data points to a mainstream, nationwide audience rather than a youth-skewed one. YouTube’s reach splits almost evenly by gender, with 36.1 million male viewers and 35.5 million female viewers, and spans every age bracket, from 18 million viewers aged 10-29 to 13 million aged 60 and over.
