Alright, let’s talk about this fella, Austin McBroom. Folks keep askin’, did Austin McBroom play in the NBA? Well, lemme tell ya, the answer is a big ol’ NOPE. He didn’t.
Now, I ain’t no fancy basketball expert, but I know a thing or two from watchin’ them games on TV with my grandkids. This Austin fella, he was a basketball player, yeah, but not in the NBA. He played that college ball, for some team called the Central Michigan Chippewas, whatever that is. Sounds like a bunch of squirrels to me, but hey, good for him.
See, Austin, he’s more famous for bein’ on that there YouTube with his wife, Catherine. They got this big channel called “The ACE Family.” Millions of folks watchin’ them, apparently. Kids these days, always starin’ at them screens. Me, I prefer a good ol’ newspaper, but to each their own, I guess.
- Austin McBroom was born on May 20, 1992. That makes him 32 years old.
- He’s from North Hollywood. Fancy place, I hear.
- He played college basketball, not NBA. Important difference, ya know.
This whole ACE Family thing, it’s a big deal, I reckon. They post videos about their family, their kids, their travels. Seems like a good life, but honestly, I don’t get it. They announced they were gonna quit YouTube a while back, then they kept on postin’. Young folks, always changin’ their minds.
Austin and Catherine, they got hitched a while back, in 2017. They met in 2015 and been together since then. Had a bunch of kids, too. Always wanted a baby boy, they did. Announced it in one of their videos. Folks love watchin’ that kinda stuff, I guess. Family life and all that.
But back to the basketball thing. People keep gettin’ it twisted, thinkin’ he played in the NBA just ’cause he played ball in college. That ain’t how it works, y’know. NBA is a whole ‘nother level. Them fellas are giants, runnin’ and jumpin’ like nobody’s business. Austin, he wasn’t that good, I reckon. Otherwise, he’d be on TV playin’ with the big boys, not makin’ videos on YouTube.
So, to be clear, Austin McBroom never played in the NBA. He played college ball and now he’s a YouTuber. That’s the long and short of it. Don’t let nobody tell ya different.
Now, I heard tell he’s had some troubles, too. Divorced his wife, Catherine, just recently. That’s a shame, always sad to see a family breakin’ up. Especially when they got all them kids. Guess life ain’t always sunshine and roses, even for them YouTube stars.

People online, they love to gossip, y’know. Always talkin’ ’bout this person and that person. Austin and Catherine, they’re no different. Folks are always speculatin’ ’bout their lives, their relationship, their money. It’s a crazy world out there, I tell ya. Too much noise for my likin’.
But yeah, Austin McBroom, basketball player, YouTuber, family man… well, maybe not so much of a family man anymore, what with the divorce and all. He’s a lot of things, but an NBA player ain’t one of ’em. And that’s the truth, plain and simple. Don’t need no fancy words or complicated explanations. Just the facts, ma’am, just the facts.
So next time someone asks you, “did Austin McBroom play in the NBA?” you can tell ’em, “No, he didn’t! He played college ball and he’s a YouTuber. Now leave me alone and let me watch my soap opera.” That’s what I’d say, anyway.
Anyways, that’s all I gotta say about this Austin fella. He ain’t no NBA star, but he’s somethin’ else, I guess. A YouTuber. Who knew that could even be a job? Times are changin’, that’s for sure. Makes an old lady like me scratch her head sometimes, but what can ya do? Gotta keep up, I suppose. Or not. Maybe I’ll just stick to my newspapers and my soap operas. That’s more my speed.
Remember what I told you now, and don’t go spreadin’ no rumors. Austin McBroom, college basketball, YouTube, no NBA. Got it? Good. Now go on and do somethin’ useful with your day.
