this dude is me if i'd stuck with basketball. plays exactly the way i do; well, except i can't shoot for shit. but all the no look passes and playing ahead of the defense, that's me. also i'm 5'9!
I see Yuki Kawamura as the definition of a pure point guard. He can shoot 3's (which is the standard today), but his primary and best ability is to make lots of good passes, similar to Magic Johnson, Chris Paul, Jason Kidd, or Steve Nash. We need more point guards these days that should pass the ball frequently. Brings back the old-school basketball charm.
No we don't. That archetype died out because they were useless without the ball and cannot play with elite superstars who can run the offense just as well.
I hope he plays in the regular season. His passing alone should get him a spot. Not just the no look pass, but the situational awareness of where everyone is and pulling the defense in an entirely different direction before a quick pass. Good 3 point shooter too. He would be a nice change of pace off the bench.
Signing this guy and even playing him 10min a game will bring people in the stadium that normally wouldn’t go and you’ll get a whole country watching your games halfway around the world… way more benefit business wise signing a guy like this than a random bench player
Yuki is a great athlete ... extremely quick and coordinated ... so yeah, not tall but he looks like the road runner out there.... And his court vision is like Jokic so he knows where everyone is at all times. I hope he gets a roster spot.

Umm, this guy plays a lot like Hali. He can shoot great but those passes were Hali passes. Let’s stop comparing to Lebron when someone plays great. Just give him accuracy. He plays so much like a 5’8 Hali and it looks great to watch
