Wheel "clicking" during spinning
Driving home on the highway last night when I started noticing a "clicking" coming from the drivers side front wheel. Also a bit of vibration.
Made it home and jacked up the wheel and I could re-create the sound myself just by turning the wheel:
Note: I have not yet done my due diligence regarding troubleshooting myself. I'm pretty busy today so I thought I quickly post the video and see if anybody here had one of those "Oh I've seen that! It's definitely ______" moments...
I'll get back to it myself in a day or two.
If it makes a difference, when it started I was hauling some furniture on the roof rack. Much more weight than this car is used to...
As usual, any help or insight is much appreciated.

Seemed to have been a false alarm.
I took everything apart, all the way down to the hub. Wheel off, brakes off, including rotor and carrier. I tried spinning the hub by hand but I couldn't re-create the noise so i figured it was the weight of the wheel. Bolted the wheel directly onto the hub and spun it again, but still nothing.
Put everything back together, re-spun, nothing. Took it for a test drive, nothing.
I'm happy it's "nothing" but I'm concerned it's "nothing". 'Hopefully' just a loose bolt or a tab folded in.
