In October 2022 he posted a video titled I’m Done Playing Basketball, for Good. and said he had played the last game of his YouTube career. “I gotta hang it up,” he said, as quoted by Tubefilter on October 11, 2022. “That’s just the reality. I gotta look out for me.” He gave his reasons in the video. He said he would keep making basketball videos and stay with 2HYPE, calling it “the end of a chapter.” His channel has since posted some 1v1 games again, such as INSANE 1v1 Basketball vs Marlon!, and as of October 2026 his weekly uploads are mostly NBA trading card box openings and card wagers with creators like Jesser.

If that changes, this entry will say so.
Our read
Ames Create does not work with Kristopher London. This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.
The format. The basketball changed, the format did not. For more than a decade the draw has been his reactions, loud, quick and self-mocking, first over NBA 2K and park games, now over NBA card boxes and wagers where the loser hands over every card. His channel bio sums up the brief in three words: “Laugh a little.”
Why it travels. 2HYPE is the engine. One challenge gets filmed with five or six creators and posted on several channels, so each video borrows the others’ audiences, and his card wagers with Jesser run on both channels at once. The LSK channel and a TikTok of about 700,000 followers catch the short reactions in between.
Brand fit. Trading card makers, breakers and marketplaces are the clearest fit: his audience already watches him spend money on boxes and cheer the pulls. Basketball gear, NBA 2K and sports media fit the older catalog. No controversy on the record, and since a lot of his reach runs through group videos, the strongest deals likely include 2HYPE.
