Why it worked

The video taps into a shared appreciation for a popular athlete, using humor and relatable commentary to engage viewers. The creator's strong, opinionated stance and playful exaggeration likely resonated with a broad audience interested in sports and pop culture.

Summary

The creator expresses frustration with people who are just now discovering Luka Doncic, emphasizing that he has always been attractive and a good player, even in his past. She humorously contrasts his past appearance with his current look and states her desire for him to return to playing for the Dallas Mavericks.

Structure

2Praising his consistent attractiveness
3Recalling his past appearance and playing style
4Expressing frustration with latecomers
5Stating desire for his return to the Mavericks

Product placement

Luka Doncic (basketball player) - ACTS: He is the subject of discussion and admiration, with his appearance and past physical condition being analyzed. Removing him would change the entire video. Dallas Mavericks (basketball team) - ACTS: The team is mentioned as the team Luka Doncic plays for, and the desire for him to return to play for them is expressed. Removing the team would change the context of the discussion. Spotify (music streaming service) - APPEARS: Mentioned as the source of the original sound. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.

Transcript

And to all these girlies on social media giggling and kicking their feet over these new pictures of Luka Doncic. That man has always been fine. He has always been fine. Yes, in these pictures he looks like he belongs in the Slovenian royal family. But he has always been fine. Even back when he had a beer gut, potbelly, looked like he worked at a pizzeria and played pickup basketball at Lifetime. Not even Lifetime. At the YMCA on Tuesday nights. And he just lollygagged going back on defense. He looked fine back then. I don't appreciate those of you just now discovering Luka Doncic. Is it your first day on earth? The things I would do to get that man back in Dallas playing for the Mavericks. I don't even think I can say them on this app. I would get banned. I would give ANYTHING.
