This guy is awesome. This is the first time I see a little men take so much advantage to his size. I think this guy will have a great career forward him !
Welcome to the Nba and good luck with Memphis Team !

[@Ash.livesmindfully]

I'm not even into basketball and this guy got my head turned. He gives huge hopes to undersized athletes overall. Anything is possible if you just put in the hard work! I'm definitely going to start following basketball now and excited to see how it pans out for him with the Grizzlies!

[@CastroROSSIGonzoOmarTete]

skills,speed,jump high and unpredictableness.period.

[@ruhaanpremi2306]

That block was insaaanneeee

[@hezination]

Yea especially considering how small he is! 🔥

[@bball3048mm]

Just saw some highlights from the Paris games and he played very well. He even got an G League/NBA contract with the Grizzlies.

Yuki is another one of those amazing guards from Asia. Kawamura is like Japan's version of one of the best guards to ever play for the Philippines--Jimmy Alapag. In his FIBA profile, his listed height is 5'9" (176 cms) which is just 1-inch (2.54 cms) taller than Yuki. During the 2014 World Cup, Alapag averaged almost 10 ppg. High basketball IQ, quick, and also a deadly outside shooter. Pretty similar to Yuki.

[@Mimihuynh01]

so hes 5ft 9?

[@Joe-bb4yi]

@@Mimihuynh01jimmy is not yuki

[@JasonWemba]

Tenorio's playmaking, castro's speed drive to the basket, alapag shooting and confidence.

[@prestoCreams]

😂😂😂 bro stop the cap, jimmy alapag can't score against wemby and gobert, this guy cooked both of them, Pinoy Ako bro, pero nonsense Yang comparison mo kasi di naka tungtong ng Olympics mga yun, no hate bro, let's be real here tf, yuki is light years better than alapag or Castro or even tr7 😂😂😂 try muna nilang tirahan si wemby sa harapharapan Ang mag layup na parang walang 7'5 sa likod nila Bago Ako naniwala, hetong si yuki tinalo sila wemby at gobert sa box score and plus minus😂

[@kunxv15]

if his play translates to the NBA, he will become an instant crowd favorite

[@blasblasblas2094]

This is a good example of " Big thing comes in small package ", LOL.

[@andykoh7880]

If they allow him to….

[@JasonWemba]

Linsanity 2.0 if it happen I would say only 10-20% tho.

[@BRZZVLTTXX-II]

Appreciate it a lot, thanks for making this video

[@iamcjayy7875]

While yes he is a floor general and gets his teammates involved, Kawamura Yuki is more of a score first guard tbh...led the b.League in scoring in his first full pro year as the 1st optionn. He plays like a right handed Isaiah Thomas or like a score first, shorter CP3 the way he puts in max effort on both ends of the floor IMO. Great analysis!

[@scarreddust]

He is literally Miyagi

[@jaylenlai]

Miyagi can't shoot

[@susboy1554]

Slam dunk reference

[@gavraptor7312]

Basically miyagi and rukawa combined

[@monstaar7887]

Sora from ahiru no sora then

[@Traveontai]

[@siyangliang5974]

Can you do another video for his Olympic performance?

[@henikechi4423]

[@도이미찌요]

彼はボール🏀に 好かれているみたい 🥰👍

[@ChatRBz]

That man is serious

[@Ka0t1c]

same highlight twice btw

[@allenmoses110]

He could be another Isiah Thomas, Pistons, not Celtics.

[@bobdoodle6527]

Yep better than pilipino point guards.

[@prestoCreams]

This guy cooked the most overhyped player of today Victor wembanyama and the useless NBA spot Rudy gobert😂
