The Warriors Found Their Next Young Star Kai Sotto
The Golden State Warriors are in need of a big man after trading away James Wiseman. Now, they may have found their next young star in 7'3" Filipino center Kai Sotto. Sotto has elite rim protection skills and impressive footwork that fits the Warriors system. He proved himself overseas after going undrafted and looked solid in summer league for the Magic. Sotto's combination of size, defensive potential, shooting ability, and playmaking IQ makes him an ideal flier for the Warriors. The one knock is his injury history, suffering untimely ailments before key workouts. If Sotto can stay healthy, he could be the next hidden gem uncovered by Golden State. This video analyzes why the Warriors should take a chance on the international unicorn big man Kai Sotto to bolster their frontcourt.
Wow Kai sotto is really earning that popularity in the states. This is not the first time I saw him being talked about and being mentioned in rumors.
pinoy baited lol
that's because he has multiple fans and they're just using your idol to get views.
Why not? In case you haven't noticed it, if the subject is about Filipinoes, these vloggers gain a lot of views from those proud Filipinoes lol.
It's just rumors
Yeah so you could get baited..
there is called "Character development" which Kai can be taught while is in the league if they gave him a chance. By proper coaching and proper building.
You are partially there. Kai should have gone to college in the US, played G-League for years. His management does not know what they/he is doing. But, by this age, it is already too late. Character development deals with your mental situation, meaning you are not a spoiled child or ball hog. That does not apply here. Talent is what applies here. In the NBA height is nothing more than a bonus to an already talented player. In reality, Kai does not know how to properly run, does not have mental toughness, does not have the strength needed for his position and all of that is clear from the NBL. China would be a good career for Kai as a back-up player. Kai needs to do that before even that is too late. NBA talent? Next year’s center draft class is really good and those 17 year olds are already just as/more talented than Kai.
@@brittinfisher8102 Right on
Kai isnt the only player that can be taught tho😂😂 other better players can also be taught
I think this is a solid fit. Sotto will need time developing but for the Warriors, they get another big 7ft center. Hopefully, all will pay off and that once Sotto is sufficiently developed, he can see time on the court.
Don’t count Kai Sotto out!
It's 7ft kids coming every year. Why waste time developing a 21 year old whi hasn't advanced in years and also doesn't display the necessary athleticism to keep up with the modern game. He doesn't need to be an athlete like Jalen Duran, but he needs to be able to keep up with guys like Jokic (athleticism wise) and he cant. Stamina wise he cant be on the court for more than a few minutes without standing around making zero effort to get involved in plays because he is winded or doesn't know what to do
@@airealarmour3281 have you even watched him playing outside of the nba? Even though the leagues may not be up to nba levels, you get a taste at least of what he does well in and the areas he needs to improve on. Kid’s got some potential but there’s a lot of work to do!
@daniellai518 There isn't any potential tied to a player with these flaws in his game. At his age and experience, he should be miles ahead of the competition in Japan, but it seems that he is the one behind. Also what does he do well that any other big man can't do? His shooting splits suggest this isn't a strong suit, his lateral quickness is why it's difficult to play him in meaningful minutes, his stamina may never be up to par and he doesn't understand basic reads.
@daniellai518 you guys always ask "have you watched him play" then you get cooked with facts and never can come with anything substantial to bring to the table.
@@airealarmour3281wow man, do you really want the smoke? Listen, you do got some valid points. But the Warriors don’t have a 7ft guy on their team. And even if Sotto’s got lots of work to do and I mean lots and lots of work to do on his game plus if he’s the guy the Warriors want, then let it be. Sure, it might not look good on paper but that doesn’t mean Sotto’s not the man for the job. But that doesn’t mean he’ll be an instant game changer and I know he won’t be making an immediate impact. Point here is, you can’t just write him off for all the flaws he has. Almost like you’re putting him down. Tell that to his face. I would love to see you get absolutely destroyed
Fake news
If Wiseman who's already in good shape didn't work out on warriors, so what would be the odds for Kai to be signed? I mean, even Kuminga didn't really got much playing time despite being more athletic. they were still sent to G-league, or Benched and for wiseman who's later on got traded out. I'm still rooting for Kai to make it and Goodluck to him
i think they want to create new stragegy thats why
pinoy baited
Kai sotto is different than James Wiseman because Kai sotto is so much smarter and have many skilled he use left hand and right hand plus more defensive than Wiseman..
Wiseman is way better than Kai Sotto. Why tf would the warriors waste another roster spot for a beanpole?
This is like the third video I've seen saying Golden State found their center when he doesn't play for Golden State why is everybody trying to force this average rookie center to Golden State mind you I am in Orlando Magic's fan and I was excited to see him play they didn't play him but when they did he did not excite me at all
Smdh no one in the NBA is looking to sign Sotto. These are fake videos with fake news. He isnt good enough and may never be
I’m sorry to observe that KS moves like a high schooler, and slowly. Until he develops
some fast twitch with hops, this sad sack vid will play on. Sign Javale McGee
Thank you bruh you made the Filipinos happy for appreciating kai ❤
Thanks man for our Kai Sotto! Hope he can make it to NBA!
I will take a chance for a minimum contract with a huge potential.
BS 😅😅😅😅😅
Kai Sotto is not NBA potential sorry to say that but truth
No way he not tough enough to play in the nba that is why no one pick him warriors should of pick cam whitmore have the heart and skill to play in the nba.
This will help the warriors be so relevant for the future in their young core
Another fisherman.. congratulation for your additional subscriber...
thanks for appreciating kai sotto…i think kai has a lot of room of improvement and he has a potential if there is a chance or if they give him a break or signing him in
G-League in small amount of contract just to test ability and the impact of his game on the team…why not right?
Lets go!!!! I 💯 agree. He is the perfect guy and more important at the perfect price!
😂😂 . Weak
Given he develops well under their system. Will spend a lot of time in the g league. Haters can say all they want!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sotto play for the Warriors? Not a chance. I like to watch Sotto, but he's already shown to get pushed around in the NBA Summer Leagues. If he cant add meaningful weight he'll be playing somewhere in Asia.
This is what the warriors need to stay dominant in the NBA
Kai on warriors...no no no, he is a downgrade of Wiseman, I'm a Filipino, but Kai is too slow, he is not for NBA, sorry guys
I have nothing against Sotto, but have had friends who have played center in Australia, both best on their teams. Sotto cannot even cut it on his own team, let alone in that league, or any level in the US… likely not even the G-League, or he would have proved it the past 2 years. Bad guidance with lack of talent. But, he should play in China, if he can.
It's obvious to a lot of ppl outside of the Philippines. It's no hate, it's just a reality. He may develop into a solid back up center in China, but he just not good enough for Australia, NBA and Euro
@@airealarmour3281 I have been to the Philippines on a few occasions, and all over a good chunk of Asia as my father was an airline captain for Pan Am and United. I played a lot of pickup and challenge hoops over in that part of the world, as well as several family members. Same goes for Australia/NZ, and more. The game is getting better, but it is not like the US, or even some parts of Europe. Kai should change management as his direction has gone nowhere his pro career. China is his ticket, plus staying close to home. The NBL is just too tough for his lack of agility and fitness. As we have seen, extra size means little in the NBA.
You’re just doing this for the views Kai’s not nba material enough lets be real
nah, its to increase ticket sales among the PH community in Cali
Pride of the Philippines Kai Sotto❤️
😂 WTF It would NOT be smart for the dubs to sign another player they have to develop and who has an injury history. You are definitely gassing this dude up just because he is tall and moves off ball….but that’s not what the Warriors need from their center. This dude would get exposed by joker and manhandled by Embiid. They need a vet center who is a lob threat and an actual defender, that’s not Sotto. Potential isn’t good enough on a championship team sotto is decent but he shouldn’t be on the warriors we don’t need another project.
Not many vet min guys out there that could fill that role. I mentioned Howard in the video but not many other guys available.
@@hoopsdom Biyombo, Moses Brown, Serge Ibaka. It's quite a few vets who can fill that role for 10-15 minutes a game. It make zero sense to sign Sotto who needs a few seasons (2-3) in the g league before he is ready to contribute 10 minutes in the nba. You don't waste years of development on a player who can't be a impact player. At 21 he should be better than what he is, you can't blame Australia because we have seen guys develop over there. He was a 4 star coming out of HS he should have went to college and learned to play to his strengths now he is too far behind his peers
Another fake news.
He's Young and can develop his skills with the proper staff. Give the young guy a try.
For the right price kai Sotto is a perfect fit. Not expensive but has a massive potential all around big
Seen him play, he's not pro level
No we don’t he’s terrible quit hypin him up
So it was hype ! Im willing to bet my entire paycheck that Kai Sotto will never be an NBA player
Ohh really? 😂
Lets go kai💪
Kai Sotto is tall, but soft. Dubs need a big with a mean streak instead.
He can develop in that aspect. Sheesh man, ur so negative
Dubs also need a legitimate bigman that can stretch the floor. So yeah. He will more likely develop his body than dray and looney develop a consistent outside shooting.
@@GamerBro22299 He is not. What I’ve, he is realistic. All that needs to be done by the individual well before coming to the NBA. What people outside do not understand is that the
E USA is the pinnacle of the world for most sports. You have to already have those skills before the NBA will want you. The NBA is not for training, but rather refining what a player already has. Go for China where Kai might be able to one day make a starting lineup and get some more floor time. The NBA is where the PROVEN best in the world play.
@@rald9291Kai should have already developed his body, but he obviously did not. Have you seen Kai run? It’s like a non-athletic girl. That should have been trained out before he could drive… but his management either screwed up or they tried and they cannot correct it. Either way Kai needs to be a top producer of another league before he is considered good enough for a bench spot in the NBA. Go to China and get experience.
@@brittinfisher8102 Mr Smartypants, I don’t need ur bullshit analysis
only 2 second in and full of mistakes.
Kai pls i will watch nba live every game . To support the team
We want kai...from the Philippines...
To be honest ..he is not good at all .
True, there many 7 footer players out there whose way better than Kai Sotto, Sorry Phillipines. NBA is not about pleasing the wishes of a country. It's a league of elites.
KAI: thank you guys for the my critics of suppression, it does still a publicity after all🙏🏼
@natsumidesu8019 you not Kai. If you were Kai, then your reasoning for not being in the league is "suppression" or any other reason other than skill, then you're not going to make it. Kai needs to get better and actually play in a league that better than the one he is currently in, like Euro. 8 point 6 rebounds in Japan will not get you into the NBA. No one owes you a roster spot because of your nationality. The NBA is a league centered around the best 400-500 players in the world. Kai is not considered that in basketball circles.
@@airealarmour3281 No one owes you a roster because of your nationality?was it still an issue here?and the Chinese came along with your so called league of elites? Your funny 😆
His biggest injury is being Filipino
I'll just believe it when I see Kai playing in NBA. Most of these NBA teams loves to ride on someone's hype and fame. Kai has been famous in Asia and Australia.
hahahahaha keep dreaming
Kai is only tall but he’s weak compared to other centers in the NBA. He won’t last.
FAKE NEWS FOR THE VIEWS LOL
Potential means nothing if you don't fulfill it. He hasn't done good
So true!!!
They shoulda kept Wiseman and traded Poole for Porzingis.
They didn't and don't need LaMelo, Halliburton, Bane or whoever else you said, well, maybe Bane.
They could trade Kuminga for GPii if JK is actually unhappy in his role. What i heard is Kerr didn't trust him on defense. So even though it's thought that Kuminga has higher upside, you're moving a super athletic guy who you don't trust on defense for a super athletic guy who knows your system and plays great defense. You can't always fall in love with names on paper.
Wiseman barely played college ball and then was hurt last year. Looney played 5 games his first year, 53 games his second year, averaging 2.5pts and 2.3rb, and now he's a menace! i don't understand what the rush to get rid of JW was, and if the idea was doing right by him and sending him to a team where he can make mistakes, why'd they trade him to a team with ten centers already 😂
I dunno how Porzingis would affect the salary cap situation but he likes to hang around the perimeter on offense, which makes him playable next to Mr. offensive rebound Looney or Draymond, and he blocks a lot of shots. Admittedly I didn't watch a lot or any Wizards games last year but Porzingis had over 100 blocks i think. Just having someone 7'3" on the court is helpful sometimes.
Anyway, I'm glad they didn't trade Wiggins and the Kuminga/Moody picks for Beal bc i was prepared to become a Kings fan if they did 😂
Wiseman was trash and in Detroit he is trash
another click bait using Kai Sotto because he knows that he will get millions of views from Filipinos who are easily lured from such over exagerated build up of their countryman.Unrealistic !!! He was not even drafted or chosen at NBA summer league.
Let's face it. Health is one of the most important things on NBA teams that's why no team wants him. Put yourself in a team owner's or GM's perspective, you have a 7 footer thin as heck and you are gonna spend money on him to "develop" him and make him stronger, instead of putting that money on developing further his skills. Then you have to worry about him being injured each and every game. It's not business worthy and that's what the game is all about now, money.
Kai's still young and have plenty of room for improvement and growth. I think GSW may have a sensible choice in molding Kai Sotto. We'll see!
Overated
@@bsme2249, you must be speaking of Lebron?!
Will this kind of promoting of Kai Sotto is a good move, if this vlogger earn viewers from filipino's, Kai Sotto will also benifits his content. Thank u and more power and viewers.
Pinoy bait / Filipino bait LOL ... yeah make them (including me) feel good (or fool) even if it is not real/possible. Hope you get a lot of views from Philippines, anyway that's the real point imho.
Because he's an Asian.
He can go down in NBA history as “he could have been”. NBA is not his world. He is Asian / Filipino and not American! Big factor!
Clickbait video for Filipinos, the average hooper has a better chance of becoming a professional basketball player than Kai Sotto making it to the NBA.
you just made this up
A lot of talk around Kai. I'm hoping the buzz around Kuminga will translate in a team picking up Kai. He deserves to be in at least the G league.
FAKE STORY FAKE NEWS
Another click bait. The guy did not do well in the summer league and was given a few minutes of playtime. Kai needs to be more buff and fast.
If only gsw are smart this center is they need because he has all the skill they need and they have a chance to win nba chanpionship with kai sotto as their main center..
Hahaha!aq po s tototo lng,hndi n kai kakayanin s NBA,oo pinoy aq pero aminin n natin n walang kakayahan c kai n mkpag sabayan s NBA.
this is fake news?
Philippines big big fans for the warriors, much more when we have Kai sotto in the warriors , warriors need a big man,
The 2023 World Cup proves Kai Sotto is an overrated bum 😂
this all click bait
KAI SOTTO IS WORST THAN JAMES WISEMAN OR KEVON LOONEY. KAI SOTTO CAN'T EVEN CRACK THE STARTING LINE UP OF HIS AUSTRALIAN AND JAPANESE TEAMS. HE IS TOO WRAK AND TOO SLOW UNLESS YOU'RE ON DRUGS OR DRUNK
Nah, it wasnt cuz of lack of playtime. It was purely racism and discrimination.
Because he's Asian. It's the same reason Jeremy Lin wasn't given the same opportunities other athletes are given.
Sorry to burst the bubble and bust ur nits but not going to happen. Keep on dreaming. We and you know that as well.
what are you talking about, he is soft and slow. he should dominate pba first before aspiring nba
fake news
And this is one of the vloggers taking advantage of Kai giving wrong informations..tsk
Oops bait. If wiseman cant play in warriors system how will kai play?
Kung dyan c kai sa warrior sakit2 ang warrior gym lang na kulang kai sotto pa tig aha lawas ya😊
THE ISSUE IS STEVE KERR IS NOT GOOD COACHING UP ROOKIES AND YOUNG PLAYERS!!!
guys. The answer to GSW is Bonel, The Balingit man😊
Make content about Kai to gain views, a not talented NBA calibre hahahaha
fake news! he cant even play against low tier players.. haw haw haw..😆
Dude stop using Kai as a way to pull viewers. We know it aint happening
Wisemen was the number 2 pick btw..
Congratulations Warriors!! You just hired the best player from far East, Philippines. He is an excellent player like my idol Stephen Curry. Now you have two excellent player in your team.
😂😂 you do realise this vid is 7months ago
Filipino naya warrior maraming skill basketball pa game na sang filipino
Yes its true that Kai is still not there yet but come on, he's blocking ex NBA and National Team members in BLeague and giving them a hard time scoring.. NBA Teams can develop Kai into a player they want him to be..
THIS IS THE RIGHT TIME TO HIRE KAI SOTTO OTHERWISE YOU WILL REGRET LATER!!!
How come he is not in the roster in yesterday’s game against the Lakers
The warriors need a two way center and a defensive player and a shooter
Kai wouldn't make it to the NBA just playing for Japan. He has refused offers from European teams which is baffling because he could've developed and improved there 🤦♂️
It's about money. He is making a profitable living being a promotional tool. It's not about making a career out of basketball, it's more about being a pinoy celebrity with him. That's the only explanation for some of his bad decisions
Why not Filipinos are not new for basketball 😏
The “t” in debut is actually silent, bro. 🙊
I'm filipino, and im telling you, kai is too soft for the NBA.
You shut up.. Watch Kai Sotto in J League, is different from before. Open your eyes bro, once Sotto is in NBA. WERE SO PROUD.
so this is the new Draymond's punching bag ?
Most over rated bench warmer. What a joke.
Sadly, the NBA has some dark secrets - seldom foreign players are given the chance, Preference is always on home grown talents. Marketing ??
Jordan Clarkson, Jaylen Green are half Filipino.They are the NBA cause they got the talent.Kai is skinny guy not fit for NBA war.
YES ,YOUR RIGHT . I TOLD WARRIORS.TO GET KAI SOTTO.💪👍
kai first harden his body and build muscle 😊
kai sotto perfect for gsw....
Gsw hadn't had a decent big since demarcus cousins
Give kai aotto a chance
Not even a Super Star in Gilas Pilipinas.😁
He is going to Lakers. 2-way deal.
Kai Sotto can ba an asset to any team.
It’s already training camp still no contract
They could get Sotto for cheap!!!
Stats will come up if he already adapt NBA if ever he gets a contract.. watch FIBA, NBL, AND JAPAN LEAGUE..
Thanks brozki proud pilipinas 😊
Why don't the Spurs sign him?
