@@danisheyes40 Yea, talk to me when he accomplishes something. Just because he’s playing in LA doesn’t make him great 😂 Never understood the hype, you weren’t talking about him when he was playing in Japan or Washington. Come on man..
Love Rui so much. His college is my home town team and watched him the whole time. But this video kills me because this guy says Gonzaga wrong every time. They are the zags. Like zig zag. Gonzaga! Not Gonzahga
He and his siblings have their mother's name because in Japan, foreigners don't have a family registry. I have a son with my wife's name on paper and mine in parenthesis andI keep it that way so he doesn't get discriminate against just by seeing his name on a paper.(C'mon Japan, it's 2023, wtf?)
Stop this BS lying lmao. He has his mothers name because their parents are divorced lmao. Yu Darvish has his father’s Iranian name, and there are plenty of celebrities and athletes in Japan that has foreign surname from their father/mother. This whole “Japan is discriminating foreigners” BS is just a typical anti-Japanese propaganda you see on internet, which is mostly overreaction by sensitive foreigners lol.
@@a61374 Nonsense. When Japanese immigrate (and they immigrate a lot) they don't change their family names. What kind of logic is that? Fujimori stays Fujimori in Peru...doesn't make Peru a Japanese country.
Who estimated a net worth of 5 mio. USD? The P.E. Teacher? He made 5 mio. USD each year his first 4 years in the NBA, that’s excluding sponsorships… nice vid nevertheless
Taxes my boy. Not to mention manager, agent, PR, etc cuts. My dad played in the NBA and became a manager after. If a player is making 1 million per year then they'd be lucky to take home 50%
where did u get his 5 year 188 million contract scheme? AINT NOBODY in NBA would pay that price for rui service... any GM that would sign him for that price would be BARRED IN NBA for LIFE
Tennis player Naomi Osaka faces lot of discrimination before she won her first Grand Slam title, after she won she gains recognition in Japan mainstream. Japan has been slowly embracing foreigners in it's national team and literally the first East Asian nation to do so. That is already a change from a region that is homogeneous as East Asia in general is very homogeneous,
I got problems with people who hate this guy... I think he's a unique & wonderful human being.
rui is famous in japan
I'll be rooting for Rui!
The most famous basketball player in Japan, who belongs to the most famous team in Japan.
Rui is literally the pride of Japan ❤🤍
whole japen is backing Lakers and Rui , go fighting!!
If only we can also get Yuta Watanabe, will make the first asian front court! Lakers already have the first asian backcourt before with JLin and Clarkson, now time for the first frontcourt

@@howardsun The Lakers are garbage, don't even bother.
@@shinobu37 don't be a dick, let the man enjoy sports
@@gormin555 Who are you?
Bro he moves like Kahwi 🔥
As a Lakers fan I am so excited to have him with the team.
his younger brother Allen did not play baseball at Tokai Uni...but played basketball there. And he is now a professional basketball player in Japan
How is he 6’8…still looks like a miracle.
Father's genetics.
His dad like 6’5
Do Yuta Watanabe next
His younger brother Aren played basketball, not baseball, for Tokai University, and now he plays professionally for Gunma Crane Thunders.
Rui will be International favorite
Acting like he a star or sum...dude just a role player chill..
@@shinobu37 u don’t know what international means?
@@danisheyes40 Don’t challenge me on the language. By saying “international favorite” is a stretch.

His brother doesn't play baseball lol
Here after that game 1 performance!
@4:55 he improved on his shooting. Ben simmons didn't even bother putting in the work.

I mean they are very protective of their culture identity, if they start accepting foreign name they might as well as kiss their language goodbye.
Dang I thought his dad was Japanese .... Lol

@5:34 #5 has a #6 number on the card... lol
bruh at least have correct information if you are going to upload a video on him smh...
I wouldn’t share too if I’m hanging out with those bunnies.

He prob spent the money on nothing

Also I'm sure there's some funky dual citizenship taxes as well.
and there's the mandatory NBA salary escrow which hold 10% of your yearly.
@@Shea_Ju r 100% right
And for those who plays in a high-taxed state, they may even got less than 50% in hand
he better be driving a GTR in LA lol
Incredible story I honestly thought he was black or mixed never thought Japanese I heard his accent for the first for today
He's all of those things
so many inaccuracies
Bro get your facts straight

@@KlayProdzz he aint getting paid nowhere near that
Learn to comprehend.
@stevemin7755 No one said that they think he should be paid that. They only saying he's eligible for that. Are you stupid?
To be fair there are some players with really bad contract
He needs to Get away from them instagram models
Hes fillipino .
He look like pinoy
thats why they need more black people in japan instead of critizing us they should want us to be there with open arms..
It’s a homogenous country so it’s understandable to see the distrust towards foreigners. It used to be an isolationist country
