You are definitely right sir!! Kai Sotto is NBA ready now!! You are also right that if he is given ample playing time, he can definitely contribute!! Thanks for this video. God willing!!
Appreciate this vid for featuring Kai Sotto, not in a hyped manner but simply featuring his natural capability (but with a lot of room for improvement) as a future (hoping it’ll be sooner) NBA prospect. 👍 🇵🇭❤️🏀
Kai is too slow for the NBA. I love him to get in the NBA but he ain't LBJ son. Kai could score 1 pt if it was LBJs son, and he can get in the league easily! But in honesty, Kai is not ready!
Thank you for your good words for kai sotto!❤ Filpino love him not just because he's good but also a respectful person.he love his supporters and his country!
Definitely yes.. he has improved a lot and getting better and better each day with his game and physical built...consistently played double double a game... Not only that he has a good character and easy to adjust inside or outside the court... Peace
There are many nba players in the nba who just sit and don't play but kai sotto is still good.. 100% kai can keep up with nba players for real.. go king Kai 💪👑💪💯🇵🇭
ohhhh man!! would love to see another kababayan stepping on NBA hardcourt 🙏🙏🙏 He's young, has great potential.. with the "system" and leadership in the GSW, he's gonna thrive 💪⛹⛹⛹
Kai has the basketball skills and continues to improve his game because of longer time exposure on the floor he is recently getting from Yokohama. He can be a threat inside and out because of his good shooting skills. He is also a high percentage shooter at the free throw line. He is a huge defensive threat. He hired a strength conditioning coach to add more muscles and to gain more weight to be more competent - more on the post. Kai has high basketball IQ, a team player, a willing passer and still very young at 21. He's a victim of 3 coaches who expected too much from him but not willing to help him and didn't gave him ample minutes to play to further develop his game. The bad experiences from these 3 coaches occurred and wasted over the span of 3 years until landing in Yokohama in December 28, 2023. This is less than 4 months ago and you can see the big improvements in Kai's game in a very short time. This also tells us the strong mindset Kai possess... Kai's mindset is key and I will put high premium if I am a hiring team... Basketball is a continuous and a never ending learning process, but at the same time, I strongly believe Kai is now ready for the NBA... Kai has shown early maturity and has hold himself well as shown by the improvements on his games in a very short time despite those challenges he had faced at a very young age. Will Wemby do better than Kai if faced the same challenges as Kai at a vey young age? Your guess is as good as mine...
I have to disagree with this analysis. Kai is not a great shooter. He will make an occasional mid range and three pointer, but his numbers do not back that up. He is limited to shots around the basket and his subpar post game. This only works in the B-League because he is so much bigger than other players. Do you really think that will translate against more skilled and competitive players? Look at how he handle FIBA and NBL games. He has grown more comfortable with playing in the B-League, but that hurts his case more than it helps. Playing in a league that is not competitive is not going get him exposure and development. There's a reason why Yuta Watanabe and Rui Hachimura chose to play NCAA basketball, there was no competition for them in Japan or Asia. To say that he is NBA ready is far fetch. The best B-League or KBL teams would struggle to compete against mid major D1 NCAA colleges. There are ex D1 and G-League players playing in these leagues and are putting great numbers. Does Kai deserve an NBA spot over those guys considering he isn't even as talented as they are?
@@oddmanox1 naka 13 or 14 lang naman sya sa g league. sya lang naman ang 1st 7 footer na naka 3 points sa nbl at 19 pa lang sya nun. at limited lng time nya. bakit ka mag aoutside shooting kung mas effective k naman sa ilalim…
@@oddmanox1 in G league he got 13 or 14 points. he is the 1st 7 footer that made a 3 points in nbl. he scored above 10 with limited times. why you try to shoot outside if you can play inside effectively…
Kai is now 7'3" and 246.04 pounds, turning 22 years old this May 11, 2002. That 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. The team that will draft Kai will be an advantage for them.
@@bestbuy6295 while kaisexuals are only in ph vloggers comsec🤣🤣 looks like kaisexuals cant find legit news abt kaimote in the NBA because there is none🤡
That should not and will not happen. Kai doesn't have the physique and stamina that is for the NBA. While GSW already has a Kuminga who couldn't afford to play along with Kai. Kai should stay in Asia, Oceania, or Europe for now.

Eventually, he will play in the NBA and his only 22yrs old, he's not in his prime time. Once he put on some weight, and muscle he will be a monster to reckon with. 💪👍
If kai ever play for Warriors he'll learn so much and that is he have the tenacity to be a good player and never give up, NBA is no joke, it's far from PBA.
he's not going to the warriors. It's propaganda exposure of his diehard filo fans trying to get the attention of media. Kai is like b league level... he doesn't have the stats. they're mid.
With Kai's potential because of his great talent at a relatively young age, NBA teams who will acquire him for a solid reason and purpose will become more difficult to beat with.
He needs to be aggressive and demand the ball both in the low and high post where he can either shoot, drive or dribble hand off. If he can develop his feel for the game, he can be a taller draymond.
That would definitely rock the dub nation if Kai would play with gsw..the 100million plus filipino would support kai & that would be a big money for them...
Needs more muscles, longer stamina, 200% jump shots/perimeter shooting and avoid foul trouble, if he can develop these asap, for sure he will be drafted by Warriors immediately....God Bless Kai, Just Do It and double time as Time is Running Out on You!!!
We are always praying for KAI’s Journey
You are definitely right sir!! Kai Sotto is NBA ready now!!
You are also right that if he is given ample playing time, he can definitely contribute!!

Yes! At his young age, he still have the chance to play in the nBA for sure, the more skills he will develop, the sooner he will be scouted. 🙏
He got "scouted" and we saw what happened. 60 players went ahead of him.
Make it happen warriors
Yes he can make it🎉
we love to see kai sotto play in NBA..if warrior want him why not...

I hope he can pop off for us we need him to win the warriors more games because we lack on consistently.
Kai❤
In any circumstances this guy can play in the NBA idk but that performance and arsenals is worth a shot!
To see is to believe 😊😊😊
I could guarantee to Dubs office that with Kai on their roaster, our Dubs Nation will fly again on the league, thank you,
He had also 12pts during NBA PRE SEASON vs Phoenix Sun's full roster when he was 19yo
Yeah true plus they beat the suns team..

1:30 "But just as things were about to kick up for Kai..."
His people back in Asia starting cooking bats which sparked the Covid- nah im playing 😂
Bulk up Kai you have a bigger future!
Go Kai for NBA watching her in Philippines Cebu City

Absolutely!

Its time for KAI SOTTO for NBA
He can make it!
hey chat what's with this narrative of kai to the warriors??? like there's a few warrior based channels saying this and how did it even start?
I wonder bout that too...i think gsw fans know small ball is dead. They need a big man.
@@rhaxeedo nah yt back with the fake news again to bait delusional kaisexuals
he's not going to the warriors. It's propaganda exposure of his diehard filo fans trying to get the attention of media.
Kai is like b league level... he doesn't have the stats. they're mid.
I wish they had him now they could win it all
GoGoGo Kai NBA is coming.......
Hope to see Kai in NBA🇵🇭🏀💪
Kai Sotto is the GOAT from Indonesia
Kai is a system player. With great coach and pg plus playing time, he can actually deliver.
Luka and kai connection its verry effective
"Go, go, go GSW, give Kai Sotto a call. if you're not, there are many NBA teams already scouting him."
Good luck Kai...
Kai Sotto, yes to the Dubs.
Given the chance and a bit of PATIENCE, Kai will make it to the NBA.
That's all the warriors need is KAI SOTTO to will multiple championships
Thank you for introducing Kai Sotto....a road to NBA is possible in God perfect time. God bless!
Dude just summoned Filipinos in his channel 😂
im agree that Kai fits to warriors...Kai has Court vision and has huge height
Bulk up, be aggressive inside, learn to defend and rebound inside
Filipinos keep dreaming of a compatriot to be in the NBA. First, there was hype for Kobe Paras. Now it's Kai Sotto. It's free to dream, of course.
With Kai's potential because of his great talent at a relatively young age, NBA teams who will acquire him for a solid reason and purpose will become more difficult to beat with.
😂😂 NBA didnt even see a single drop of potential thats why he went undrafted and stayed in a weak league aka Bleague😂
He needs to be aggressive and demand the ball both in the low and high post where he can either shoot, drive or dribble hand off. If he can develop his feel for the game, he can be a taller draymond.
That would definitely rock the dub nation if Kai would play with gsw..the 100million plus filipino would support kai & that would be a big money for them...

Kai is fit for warriors,fit for triangle offens/defense because of tim cone.we all know that steve is known for that system.
absolutely!!!
Kai Sotto will be in the NBA soonest
denver would be a good fit, they need interior defensive help
Definitely,just give him enough time in the court he he will give his best..
