Who Is FlightReacts?
In terms of prominent creators in the basketball and 2K community, FlightReacts is near the top of that list. As mentioned, Flight has grown a following through his reaction videos, constantly mispronouncing NBA stars' names.
In addition to his reaction videos, Flight has created music, as well as sharing clips of himself playing basketball in real life, facing up against other Internet personalities like Julian Newman and CashNasty.

The Thunder grabbed him at No. 6, and Golden State pivoted to Jonathan Kuminga at No. 7.
Fast forward to 2025: Kuminga’s got a ring, but never the keys. A rocky stint in the Bay has left him in limbo, but the Bulls can… pic.twitter.com/fLNW2AMr9q
Flight has obviously enjoyed watching and supporting Curry along the way in his career, but the reality is that Curry's career could be coming to an end in a few years. The Warriors star is under contract for the next two seasons, but he'll likely play beyond that.
Currently, the Warriors' roster construction going into next season is up in the air, as even though the team has stars like Curry, Jimmy Butler, and Draymond Green, they lack significant depth around them. Until the Jonathan Kuminga situation is resolved, there's no telling what the roster will look like on Opening Night.
