I love this kinda play. Reminds me of Zach Randolf. This would be more ideal for Zion if he played more like this rather than above the rim. I think it would be more safe for his body.
Post ups isnt really as useful in the NBA as it used to be. And zion is playing style is perfectly fine unless you are a good playmaker. Limiting him to a mere post player would be a waste of his extraordinary athleticism
@@as-iy1vo yes he does and he also shoots 3s but i was talking more about their low post play, how they use their wide frame and footwork to create space effectively against taller players

@@royguadz HAV U SEEN THE MODERN NBA KMSL…. U CANT BE A SLOW UNDER SIZE LOW POST BIG THAT CANT SHOOT OUTSTANDING. WOULD PROBABLY NOT MAKE TODAYS NBA. YOU HAV TO BE ABLE TO PLAY SWITCH DEFENSE ALOT DIFFERENT FROM OLD SLOW NBA
Footwork is incredible. Very mature player. Plays the paint and the post very well. Not afraid to call for the ball...good at playing through contact. Kid is nice...strong.
Honestly, first time I saw him score already took my attention to this guy. He's one of the basic man who can dominate you under the rim. Good thing we can still see this type of player that has good footwork and great finish inside the court. Keep it up man!
He moves like Shaq.. i love seeing big guys moving like that. His footwork, and post moves so smooth.. i just wish/hope that this kid will focus more doing damage inside, rather than focusing in 3points like the bigs in NBA today.. keep it up.. dominate more in the inside 💪
Was thinking the same thing. His footwork and play with his back to the basket is impressive. You can tell he's comfortable with his role in the post and has soft hands around the rim. Frankly, we need more of this in the NBA. I'm tired of seeing everyone and there brother shooting 3's. And for God sacks, bring back that hand checking on defense. Watching nothing but offensive positioning all games is horrible.
@@markcollins3392 that's what you call barely... He's gonna be a sleeper.., he gets a little bigger it's over... Once he figure out he's a bully it's really a wrap
I was hearing about Kenny Lofton Jr in high school, not long ago. I saw him play in a HS showcase game. The opposing team had not answer for him. I had concerns about how his game would translate to another level. Next thing I hear that he is tearing it up as a star freshman at Louisiana Tech U. I stopped doubting what he could do after I heard that. Now he is recognized at the international level. No more doubts, just enjoy watching him do his thing under the boards.
Im 6”1 and i weight 152/155 and i bully in the post being that skinny,i know how to move a how to bang bodys to get where i want. I just love post players that are crafty with their moves,isn’t just moving everyone around you it’s getting to your spot and sometimes being unpredictable in the angles. Keep up machine. 🇵🇷
i love this kid, and I want him to do well and I really want ballers to start using their heft like KLJ does, such a lost art. its actually really remarkable to see
@@ralphashlybalano1764 bc its not the way all these comments explaining how good he wood be in todays modern nba kmsl like the nba how slow bigs that cant switch
Remember I the reason, you got all those train books read to you when you were little. I’m responsible for your lifetime love for trains, Chho, Chuggg, Chug, Chug, choooo, chooo
Right, the game sucks now..Kids like this need to bring the game back to when it was best.. I still love and watch the NBA for life.. But it has really sucked since the run and gun 3 3 3...no defense, can't hand check ( which really made it suck) basically Harden slash Curry basketball that's really hard to watch.. And both those guys won MVP and can't even hold defense..🤦🤡
FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICK!! SPECIAL SPECIAL SPECIAL YOUNG MAN!! HE IS VERY HAKEEM LIKE MIXED WITH POWER! THIS YOUNG FELLA IS IN MY OPINION THE BEST BIG MAN IN THE WORLD DAWG!! OFF TOP!! 💯
what i love about his play style is he's brining back the old school basketball and i just fkcin love it
He represents a very good fundamentals in basketball, no need showtime, no need a 7 foot height to execute his role as a center.
He’s not a center he’s running the 4. Chet is the center
His low post game, footwork and finishing fundamentals are special.
His positioning is also good man
I rarely see this kind of big man (C, PF) that plays like this nowadays
Yeah thats right it reminds me of the old school basketball which you can't see now a days.
Old school big man are always fun to watch, keep dominating!
@@jewisonjacaban6980 Yup all I see now is a three point contest and a bunch of floppers
Barkley's fearlessness + Zach Randolf's footwork - solid inside operator
On fkn point! 💯
Not nearly as athletic

What NBA team you coaching next year bro ?

This guy using his weight vs zion using both his weight and explosiveness.
Randolph indeed
Zion had the highest finishing rate at the rim in the NBA. I think he's doing just fine
This reminded me of Charles Barkley in many ways. So glad to see this style of play nowadays.
Lol no
glen davis
@@lesterjohntalde296 Oh yeah. Him too.
the type of game we don't see in today's NBA. big man grinding down low. could be andre drummond, but my grandma moves quicker than him
@@dclysn8863 Drummond's been lazy on the defensive end these past few years. Yes he can rebound, but nah.
He’s got BBQ chicken in the paint whenever he wants it. I love to see strong skilled basketball like this. It’s a thing of beauty.
He runs insanely well and his energy is incredible.
Sounds a lot like his dad!
Such a refreshing game! Great to see that postplay is alive and well in this day and age
When he start finishing with his off hand he gonna be even more of beast down there on the block
It''s amazing how he uses his built to penetrate the post and he being a lefty. Very basic yet very effective.
I love this kid, one day he'll be in the NBA. His the next big fundamental in basketball.
He is now
He did good in the g league!
Great inside game skills! This was a breath of fresh air.
Reminds me of a young Barkley at the low post, Lofton is a very talented young man

I hope he makes it to the NBA and bring back real Bully Ball. Z-Bo/Barkley in the making.Great footwork. Love his game.
He's Zbo 2.0
Crazy that he scored 42 in his 1st NBA game
Footwork is incredible. Very mature player. Plays the paint and the post very well. Not afraid to call for the ball...good at playing through contact. Kid is nice...strong.
His upper body strength is amazing!!
This man is Charles Barkley all over again and I love it 😭😂😂
to fully replicate barkley, the boy needs to lose some weight
Im enjoying to watch him, basketball looks easy to him, post move, footwork, love that kid 😍
11 months later, he is killing it in the summer league. Basically the young Charles Barkley and Zach Randolph, some playing style never gets old.
just dropped career high 42 points in his first ever nba start
Honestly, first time I saw him score already took my attention to this guy. He's one of the basic man who can dominate you under the rim. Good thing we can still see this type of player that has good footwork and great finish inside the court. Keep it up man!
Future dines Rodman

Old school basketball back to the basket but very effective, he knows how to use his body. Like Charles Barkley

Its scary though if you dont learn how to shoot outside.. youll be prone to injuries
@@aldrinmercado3475 what
@@daydendelorbe2203 guys who play on the inside are more likely to get injured
He moves better than shaq... better handles and he can use both hands!!
This guy is so physical.. and with that body he is unstoppable.. he must be the mvp
He plays through contact better than most NBA players,..LOVE him, and before the UN19 tourney I had never heard of him
His strength is strength... He is strong af... Look at whenever he makes contact with a player... He easily moves them!

Wow this kid skill set is so vintage love it so refreshing to see this ..
Damn! I really miss these type of plays. Post move then bully your way down the rim! 👊
Damn he’s really the ideal big man for the modern nba but at the same time he plays like an old school big such a beautiful play style
Ummm.No
@@brianherrera1390 no one asked you Brian
@@BrOsKy981 🤣
That spin around the box out at 1:00 was so smooth 🤯
Wow! This kid is like a 90s type of basketball player. 💪👍

His footwork and combination punch is fundamental special miki
He was strong and consistent point producer player !!!

i remember sir Charles Barkley bcoz of his body build lower and upper is so strong
I wish this guy a great career ahead of him. Always puts a shift in.
He sure knows how to use his frame and being only 6’7
Kenneth "The Tank" Lofton Jr.
Wes Unseld is heading back to the NBA......
Hes a beast 😮
Taller version of Sir Charles Barkley.
Bad comparison, even when Barkley was near 300, he was fast and athletic and got off his feet quickly.
@@stonedog23 barkley was like the zion of the 90's
Love how he handles contact. First he initiates and then releases in a unique way. Hopefully this can translate on the next level.
Once the puberty cellulites turns to muscle and he grows taller. HE GONNA BE 💯🔥💛💜
I like this kid, old school game. Like a breath of fresh air
How I wish he was taller. He would be unstoppable in the NBA
Yup like shaq. Im sure he will dominate nba if he was like 7 ft tall
Who is here from his summer league games
He is nice has a old skool game knows how to play and better then some bigs right now in the league. But he is going to be a pro.
who’s a big in the league he’s better than?
@@headcontraption Go watch U19
He's a beast, hopefully MEM has a roster spot for him 🇺🇲🏀
He knows how to used his body, no need to become a 7ft tall if you have a talent like this.
Dude smoking them on the paint. Love it!
I hope he'll be successful when he plays on NBA I'm sure he's gonna be on NBA ☺️
Too small he’s playing with kids there NBA DIFERENT …
Draymond is smaller
I love this guy the way he play.
hope to see him in Miami.
Frankly, he was the true MVP
he's quick for his size...congrats bro...hope to see you make it to the nba..
well he made it...
Plays like Zach Randolph 💪
Without the jumpshot. ZBo had a killer midrange game.
i love this kid, and I want him to do well and I really want ballers to start using their heft like KLJ does, such a lost art. its actually really remarkable to see
Given how soft players today play, this old school style would dominate especially if he gets bigger.
There's a reason old school style is a rare thing in the league today 🤷♂️
@@ralphashlybalano1764 bc its not the way all these comments explaining how good he wood be in todays modern nba kmsl like the nba how slow bigs that cant switch
This Kid is special. He knows how to use his body and not scared of anyone
The next zach randolph. 🔥
how did this guy go undrafted when he bullied lottery picks like Wemby and chet in the paint?
body control and footwork..wow
His low post move is superb, the opponent could not handle the powerfull post move. Lack in size but strength and shot selection are super!
He destroyed France in the championship.
Nah its close
This guy is a beast. Not many young have a low post game nowadays. Sir Charles Jr!
More a Big Baby Davis. Needs to remember the phrase, “I’m full.”

He was the highlight of finals.. His striking dyed hair made him an easy catch to the eye.. Kid got heart and talent👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The boy’s arms is too long that he can reach his knees without bending
Yo could see this dude future being bright ,its crazy how dude take u to the 3pt line and back u down into the post and go to work
Just like the old days. True big man👐
He's got that 90's post game. I think he'll find some success in today's NBA most guys don't get after it in the post like that now.
This kid will give a new life for posting every opponent like Tim Duncan
Throwback. That's old school ball right there
I so glad to see this kind of move...its reminded me of zhac randolf , charles barkley during this prime
This is the definition of Big Man. Periodt.
His game would fit in great 20 years ago. Today you have to run gun and have handles at every single position. It's not a half court game anymore
Right, the game sucks now..Kids like this need to bring the game back to when it was best.. I still love and watch the NBA for life..

U gotta love how he puts the ball on the ground
This man is 99 overall close shot and lay-up!
He’s clearly been watching a lot of Barkley’s tapes. Just doesn’t have Barkley’s hops 😂
Yeah, it's insane Chuck with his wide body yet can out jump everyone. Well, it help he also has long arms.
Quick and doesn't hesitate. He'd drain defenders with all that. 1 or 2 dribble and straight into an action or shot. No fluff in his game
He'd doing what the coach exactly want to do to win the game. Defense, low post scoring , rebound and two man game. Reminds me Charls barkley!
i was watching a video on Chet then i noticed!! Who’s # 11 then i started watching HiM!!
Young Barkley!??
2:39 That's my move right there 😂 Get out of my way, lol.
I love watching playing like this.

This kid is amazing who ever pick him they good one
we need guys like these in the NBA..
good use of his bidy to creat space.. he knows how to operate down low.. and the desire to score..
Love the way he fakes and avoids the defenders in the paint. His footwork and the way he uses his body are impressively fundamentally sound.
His play and foot work in the post reminds me of a young Charles Barkley....especially that spin move in the post.
I see shades of Sir Charles. Athletic and smart as hell
90's type of center position.. this is a star center in the making
Once he puts the body on you he has you. He understands using his body to bump you off your balance so he can get his shot off.
this guy literally dislocated Wembanyama's shoulder just by going up strong
No way they were stopping him @ 1:57
lol
How tf did he go undrafted? Like literally I don't understand???
Boy is a beast.! Can't wait to see him in the NBA
