Evolution of Domantas Sabonis
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 03. 2022
- The Oklahoma City Thunder imagined Domantas Sabonis as a floor-stretching big. 5 years later, now representing the Sacramento Kings, the forward rarely takes a shot from outside the paint but has already participated twice in the NBA All-Star game with Indiana Pacers. How did this happen?
In this video, BasketNews’ Augustas Suliauskas goes through Lithuanian’s NBA career, attempting to deconstruct how Sabonis became one of the most fun players to play with and which circumstances allowed Domas to show off his talents in Indiana.

Yeah, I think he can help them atleast make the playoffs
@@TheeUnknown420 they look great and Sabonis is tremendously underrated
@@Drogas3653 yup, just like I said basically
@@TheeUnknown420 a rare accurate take on the kings. Sabonis has been such a thrill for us to watch this year
@@willstout5988 facts
Sabonis is so underrated. Love his game, he's going to help the Kings improve a lot going forward
He's alright
His dad was much better
@@apples874 ok
sac so good now, saboner make it easier
If he stays in Sac
Just imagine Domantas Sabonis and Sasha Vezenkov playing together on the same team...Kings will be scary good...😮😮😮
As a Kings fan I can’t wait to see a full season with him
but no more tyrese 😢
@@fierygamer8427 Tyrese was cool but not an all-star
If nothing else, he makes Fox reach his apex. Fox was dominating when they played together.
so far so good
aint bad so far huh
This longtime Sacramento Kings fan is even more excited about having Sabonis on the Kings after watching this video. Passing big men are so much more fun to watch and make the game extra exciting. Watch out for the Kings in 2022-23.. with all changes and additions, the team is going to be really, really good.
You were correct
@@Drogas3653 I was gonna say this. Reports on that trade at first were that the Kings got the worse end of it but I don't think anyone is saying that anymore.
Kings will reach playoffs this year, Sabonis is an absolute BEAST 💪🏾💪🏾

Domantas Sabonis
INDIANA PACERS PF
The only player in the NBA to average at least 20 points and 12 rebounds last season, Sabonis is also one of the best playmaking bigs in the league. He averaged a career-high 6.7 assists per game and was in the 84th percentile in offense including assists, per Synergy, ranking him right next to offensive masterminds like LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Trae Young. An excellent finisher around the basket, Sabonis increased his 3-point volume last season with mixed results. If he improves in that area, he'll become one of the most complete offensive players in the NBA. -- Colin Ward-Henninger
nice breakdown. love to see such a smooth development year by year
if i am trading a player like Domas, i'm asking for two superstars, luxury mansion in LA and half of the city.... can believe pacers let him go
One of Sabonis or Turner had to go and Sabonis had a better return. It's really that simple.
🤔....that was a joke,right?😂
Hali is a good PG for your future. Some Sacramento kings fans are still salty about it but it was even trade. We traded him for a win now player while you guys got a future all star. The only issue i had with Hali was his defense. With Buddy Hield, he’s either shit or the second coming of Stephen Curry. There’s no in between

All NBA 2nd team and playoffs with a broken finger!!
The question was answered. LIGHT THE BEAM!!!
Excellent video , Sabonis is a superstar !!
We want more breakdowns about nba players !💪
🤣🤣🤣
Sabonis is amazing player one of my favourite players in the NBA
Mission accomplished. Nice video breakdown
The Sacramento Kings have a good backcourt and Sabonis is a great big, plus they added Murray in the draft and they added Mike Brown who is a great, proven NBA head coach. They could make it into the playoffs or at least be in the play-in this season if they stay healthy. I live in Sacramento so I follow the team closely and am a big fan. Great channel!
Aged like fine wine ❤
This video is aging like fine wine
What a player
great video
And a full year later, that would be a big YES to your question at the end!
His father was the best center ever
Every Kings fan already embraced Domas it’s the other team’s fans aren’t still well educated on how good he really is.
totally unique euro player. power forward that has freakish court vision and passing ability. still want to see how they match up against teams like Denver. But there are other players who round out this great SAC team. Daaron Fox is playing out of his mind too....
Hopefully Sabonis can help the Sacramento Kings make the playoffs this season. If the team can stay healthy, they may have a chance. Great video.
crazy what this foreshadowed today
Sabonis is unpredictable player
Good passer and good handles.
Post moves and power body attack to the basket
Yes
I don't think this year will be a playoff year. The Kings have dug a really deep hole and with not many games let, it doesn't seem likely. Sabonis has quickly become a crowd favorite and in my opinion he is the best player on the Kings. Fox career will get better and easier with tremendous talent like Sabonis. The Kings finally have a GM that is GOOD AT HIS JOB and is very much qualified to do his job I think and hope next year the Sacramento Kings will be a team that all fan basis will say "You see 👀 them Kings" and hopefully it's because they are playing well and consistently well and are being recognized for success on the Cort and not disfunction like in the entire last decade +.
Things could change now. They got a solid rook in Murray and they can at least make the playin if healthy.
maybe next year sacramento can make to the playoff
They'll find a way not to.
@@Sevcen23 we don't have to find a way. We found the way a loooong time ago.
🤣🤣🤣
Playoff secured baby
commentator 3:34 "that's why you run the pick and roll with Sabonis because he'll make the right decision"....Yes.
I see c Webb in his game. A great get for Sacramento
🤣🤣🤣
The answer is most definitely yes!
The hair gives him power
Nepamirškite kad mes labai maža šalis 😉 ir Sabonis Bolas.. yra neitiketinas skilas ir šeima saboniu tegul duoda daugiau NBA lideriu 😉
he makes so many big men look like kids while in the air, he knows how to dunk, don't let him get within 3 steps of the rim or it's a bear in the cookie jar.
The prices we have now compliments each other very well. Non king fans wouldn't know.
He should get one of those elite trainers get a consistent jumper
Definitely
The Mavs should get him. This is what they’re missing. Him and Luka would have a nasty pick and roll.
Duuude, now that you say it that would be crazy just gotta improve his jumper a little and they would be deadly together. Both can pass, both rebound well, both are good on offense. Both seem to have a high bball iq. Not sure how good they would be on defense, didnt see much on sabonis's defense in the video. But a 20 and 12 guy along with a 25 8 and 8 guy together would be absolutely insane
sabonis should be mvp after this season 🟣🔦
Lucky Kings
🤣🤣🤣
@@keithjames7449 u casual af
Just here to say go zags 😄
Aciu❤
Seriously, how tall is Sabonis the Younger? He was listed at 6’ 10” or 11” but now is a 7 footer. I googled it, and it says he’s 7+. He doesn’t seem that tall, but he’s a top player today (top 10?).
NBA has been inconsistent with listing heights recently. You are finding different heights because some are from the seasons measured with and some without the shoes. Sabonis is somewhere in between 6'10-6'11 or 7 (a bit of a stretch) with shoes. By NBA standards he isn't very big especially considering that wingspan plays even bigger role than height but he isn't small either. What he lacks in thing he can't control (height as a center and wingspan) he more than compensates by being one of the strongest players in the NBA as well as being extremely skilled which is why he easily leads the league in rebounding and is such a threat creating a shot for himself and others. He is definitely all NBA third team worthy.
this aged well
He got traded all the time because his defence and need a system to build around him, it's very hard for teams to decide to build around a player who is not a super star...
imagine Sabonis on the Warriors
i remember before many okc fans,trashing domantas sabonis before
tu lietuvis?
Sabonis is stat monster on losing teams
Oof clown
Like maybe you should delete this
aciu
no mention of defense
Because there was not much evolution 🤭
Becouse there was more devo than evo. 1st year in indiana he was better rim protector than the man they decided to go with.
Because sabonis isn't a good defender and this is coming from a pacer fan and i am from Indiana m
@@keithjames7449 turner isn't good defender either. Empty def stats man.
@@lapezaz turner is a top five shot blocker and arguably the best in the NBA wtf are you talking about???🤣😂🤣
In other words, Russ being Russ held him back at OKC.
haha yes he can take the Kings to the playoffs
arvydas > domantas visada
Green is leaving the Warriors for Max, I think the Warriors need him to replace Green
a euro player with no defense? thanks. euro players are always best defenders even doncic has one of the best defensive ratings
doncic one of the best defensive player? lol
Sabonis has no defense
@@keithjames7449 are you a pacers fan?
🤣🤣🤣......I'm a pacer fan and i am from Indiana sabonis is good,but not that good. He has a huge IQ playing his position but not incredibly, physically talented at all. For example, the kings play a post up style of game that suits his limited abilities put him on a more modern style of play and he will struggle,and he's not a reliable defender either. Nice try though and thanks for tyrese haliburton😉🤣🤣
🤡
Is good and not that good 🤣🤣🤣
Kings will do better than the pacers tho with Sabonis
Sabonis leads the NBA in rebounds and double-doubles. Kings lead the NBA in points per game and are currently 3rd place in the west. Light the beam.
