You sound like a supposedly authoritative basketball blogger, but You are DUMB enough, not to do your diligent Research on Kai Sotto!!! He is possibly one of the BEST in ASIA!!! Quit blogging!@!
You're wrong! Kai has pure talent unlike those ex nba player that never prove it. Some former nba players in the world even in b-league struggle with sotto. Nba don't want to see sotto in there, it's pure discrimination why? There a lot of american not also athletic but they always base on fu...g false scouts specially givory who always inaccurate. Why don't try Filipino that has different determination and aggressiveness in sports? You can name those!
His ego is his worst enemy....if only he humbled himself and listen to his teammates advices...he has potential although not as good as Steph Curry but he can surely copy Steph Curry's moves and shooting if had more time around Steph but his ego got the better of him and off he goes to Washington to rot.... wasted undisciplined kid....his huge contract went to his head rather than in his pockets
Haven't seen this guy for a long time and I don't think he can be "the guy" for the gsw but I believe that he can be that bench guy who the coaches can put in to get defensive stops.
Naz Reid, Alex Caruso, VanVleet just to name a few undrafted, Kai Sotto have attributes of an NBA player, He just need to develop here in the US. Theres work to be done, only time will tell. By the way he can shoot with both hands, a real ambidextrous.
Kai is now 7'3" and 246.04 pounds, turning 22 years old May 11, 2002. This is the real reason for his improvement. He cannot easily be pushed around anymore. When he was 19 yrs. old he went to the USA to train, he was 7'1" and 218 pounds. He joined the G league. The pandemic hit all nations and Sotto went back to the Philippines. After the pandemic, he joined Australia's NBL, was already 7'2" nearing 7'3", and was 225 pounds. After NBL, he played for Gilas Phil. team for the FIBA World Cup where they beat the giants of China. He later joined the Japan B League and he is now 7'3", and 235 pounds, he currently weighs 246.04 pounds thanks to his strength & conditioning coach Mel Lantin who is always with him..... So now, let us compare his statistics to NBA big guys. Antetokounmpu is 6'9" and 242 pounds, 29 yrs old. Victor Wembanyana is 7'4" , 209 pounds, 20 yrs. old. Chet Holmgren is 7'1" 207 pounds, 22 yrs old; Nicola Jokic is 6'9" or 6'10" and 283.8 pounds, 29 yrs. old. Therefore, as Kai grows older and meets his target weight of 270 pounds BMI of 22, and borderline weight before obesity, he will be a powerhouse. His father Irvin Sotto is a retired basketball player, 6'7", and weighs almost 300 pounds due to inactivity, there is no doubt Kai will be a powerhouse soon. His skill is already in place as he played double-doubles several times when he got better playing time. The team that will draft Kai will be an advantage and it will be a steal for them.
im a Filipino and I appriciate all the facts without a doubt and hate. Kai never seems to be ready. we want him to see in the NBA dominating the league not clapping or cheering on the bench. He needs to work hard.
Now I'm telling you Steve Kerr is going to have to get back to be in that coach he needs to be because the Lakers are going after the coach I asked the Warriors to go out of if Steve Kerr don't get back to be in the coach you need to be back in the championship years and being towards the players and coaching and getting players in the position they need to be
