While running against Jaylen Brown, IShowSpeed could be seen taking the lead in their race. However, the streamer had to slow down after seemingly straining his left hamstring. Being unable to stand, the streamer retired to the ground. He brushed off attempts from his security detail to get him up and remained on the ground for a while. He exclaimed:

"Let's go! Let's go! I pulled my hammy! Ah! My hammy! Watch out. Watch out. Watch out. I pulled my hammy. I pulled my hammy, I still won it... I can't get up. Stop! Stop! Stop! I pulled my hammy!"

Despite the pain, Speed made sure to encourage his viewers to drop more engagement, stating:

"Let's go though chat! Ws in the stream! F**k! Ah, f**k!"

Eventually, his bodyguards helped him get back up on his feet so that he could continue the broadcast.

In his broadcast on September 4, 2025, Speed's younger brother, Jamal, went up against internet celebrity Christian "The Rizzler" Joseph. Eventually, Jamal and The Rizzler decided to go up against each other in a foot race from one end of the basketball court to the other.

A clip uploaded to X on September 5, 2025, showcased the race. To IShowSpeed's disappointment, The Rizzler managed to win against Jamal by a big margin. Speed was then seen criticizing his brother for losing to a nine-year-old.
