American livestreamer Darren "IShowSpeed" Watkins Jr. launched his second European tour on 7 July in Croatia, drawing thousands of fans to impromptu outdoor events that he broadcast in real time. Video from the opening stop captured a spectator using a racial slur, an incident that quickly circulated online but did not interrupt the stream. Crowds have since followed Watkins to Bosnia and Herzegovina and other Balkan destinations, prompting local authorities to monitor safety as streets and public squares filled with supporters hoping to appear on camera. The tour’s highest-profile moment so far came on 10 July in Athens, where Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo joined the stream. After the two-time NBA MVP expressed doubt that Watkins could dunk, the streamer cleared the outdoor rim on Antetokounmpo’s childhood court, a clip that amassed millions of views within hours. Watkins plans to continue daily broadcasts across Slovenia, Serbia, Turkey, Spain, Finland and France through late July, extending a format that earlier this year attracted massive online audiences during a tour of China.
