He had a good shooting night, but his stats on the seasons are 35% field goals, 19% from three on six attempts a game. His TS% is 45%, ten lower than the league average. By every metric he is an awful shooter.
@@MyManD As someone else said, he is actually a good shooter, he's just adjusting to this league. He's been playing professionally for years and you can see his stats took a dive specifically when joining the NBA. You look back at his career in Japan and you'll see he is a beast.
@@NigraXXL he ended his four year stint with Yokohama at 39% from the field and 31% from three. Definitely better than his G League stint, but he was never a “good” shooter. He was an amazing play maker and super high hustle player (I’ve watched him multiple times here in Japan and it’s always really fun), but I noticed even years ago he’s a high volume chucker. An electric player to watch, no doubt, but he’ll as easily shoot you out of a game more often then he’ll carry you to a win based on his scoring. It’s the assists that make him special
Yuki is a great 3pt shooter I saw it in fiba. He's like Derek Fisher. He's adjusting to the league. He's a monster in 3pt area. Remember Japan vs Spain. Even wembanyama can't block yuki lol
YUKI!!! why does it feel like he got a checklist for his plays?😆 like he focused on assists on his earlier games, then 2pts on the Showcase, and today is for 3pts and when he puts all those skills together and shows a stable play, he'll definitely get that contract
He is probably showing different parts of his game, if they need a true PG, he can be, if they need him to be a scorer, he can be, of they need him to be a dog on defense, he can be
@@RedSuns-y8e he's a beast in the Olympics, scoring over Wemby. But his Bleague stats is actually not that good. Especially from 3s. Phenomenal driver and passer, but his goal (in B) mostly from 2s
He’s adjusting to the league and new rules. Bla bla bla. That is a lot to learn in just one season. And he adjusts. Readapts. He’s a killer on the court. I’m happy he found a team who supports him. I think he is an amazing player with a good future and supportive team✌️
He is getting used to the American professional basketball’s size of the ball and distance to the ring that are different from B league and FIBA standards. He has always been a good 3 point shooter.
I think yUki is struggling with his shooting cause the ball size in japan is sIlightly bigger than the nba ball and the three point line is a little further away that he use to Shoot.
people need to do their research about Yuki, he is the MVP of B-League (Pro scene in Japan) so does people think B-league players can't go toe to toe against G-League players? do they really underestimate Asian basketball that they think B league is several tiers down than G-League? this is a normal night for Yuki. he belongs to the NBA, that's where his skill and talent will really get tested. He needs more playing time there too not like last 3 minutes when they up 40. don't waste his potential and talent please.
Yuki is fantastic but I just don’t know if the height and physicality would allow for him to be a consistent rotation piece on a NBA roster. He should lowkey go to Europe and light it up there cause he’s also a fantastic passer so where it’s more team oriented ball in Europe, he could thrive.
lol wtf is this commentator saying? bruh did not watch them fiba/olympics/ and bleague highlights. Yuki just took some time to get used to the 3pt line of the NBA since he’s been used to FIBA 3pt line his whole life.
@@Intellectualcuriosity-i5h but you can’t blame him tho. He’s adjusting into the NBA 3 point line and he is now compared to his previous g league games where he’s chucking up floaters
And plus if he can chuck up floaters plus 3 point he will get his minutes for sure. People really need to stop hating just cause he’s not providing good stats lol
No it isn't lol. Cam spencer dropped 50 in the g league and he's not on a starter level either. Tbh with his relationship with morant its best he stays with memphis bc other teams are literally gonna treat him the same way. He has to develop more that's the point of the g league. Yuki will get his time and i hope its with memphis
@@ricoransom2001I agree with you. The Grizzlies were also one of the few teams that really give opportunity to international prospects like Yuki. They also gave Yuta Watanabe time to develop before.
it must be tough being a player that can light it up in the G league but can't get mins in the NBA. If there was another level above G-league but right under the NBA there's a lot of guys that could play there. In America. not talking about overseas. edit: American to America.
lol does the commentator living under a rock? He may not be steph but he can hit those. The only thing missing was his confidence, and he finally got it back.
The fact that this man is in the G league goes to show we got some haters in the NBA keeping him here, including this dumb commentator who clearly needs to do his job better by doing some more research on the player.
A lot of hate on the commentator but going into this game he isn’t wrong. Kawamura is a 19% 3 point shooter on 6 attempts per game, and 45% TS overall on 14 shots per. By basic and advanced metrics he’s an awful high volume shooter
Kawamura is a very good 3 point shooter, he is adjusting to this league.
that's why he's an announcer for the g league
@@eedricdude😂😂
He’s comfortable now and knows the dimensions of the nba courts let’s go

At least he doesn’t really understand how to play basketball for sure.

WE WANT YUKI!!!!
It sounds like the commentator didn’t know how great of an offensive player Yuki was in Japan. 😂

idk why some people forget that this guy averaged 25ppg in the olympics
I love the fact he is 5'8 and balling with passion 🔥
I expect him to be the full time backup next season
Nah Scottie pippen jr is the backup
He needs to be signed by Miami heat
Theyre good in integrating undrafted players
@@halyup100% Yuki would be perfect for Miami Heat
I could see him Impacting the spurs off the bench
Man Yuki's good but Scottie Jr.'s got like four or five inches on him
bro thought yuki couldn't shoot
Bro flabbergasted
bro in disbelief
racist here dog
bro said "i can't believe this"
He been shooting horribly his whole career
Let's go yuki show em
Yuki yuki
Yuki is giving a hope for those who are not 6'4".
Keep fighting lil dude we need people like you in the league ratings are poop!

B league's MVP and rookie of the year.
Dude is playing the G league as if was 2k daaamnn!
I believe international basketball size is smaller than NBA....... takes time to get used to it. Looks like he's well on his way though.
He is insane...awesome
We ♥️ Yuki!
Free Yuki from South Africa 🇿🇦 🙌
ナイススリー！
Dam yuki
Best player under 6ft in the world right now?
Bruh yuki is so damn nice!!
1:07 シュート入れた後お客さんとコミュニケーションとってるのなんかいい👌

Damn all three r SWISH❤
He being japan B league mode in NBA g league 😂
The NBA would be very smart business wise if they put Yuki in the three point all star contest.
I think yUki is struggling with his shooting cause the ball size in japan is sIlightly bigger than the nba ball and the three point line is a little further away that he use to Shoot.
This kid needs a raise. I swear he’s only in the G League so people actually watch the G League.
thats actually might have some truth tbh
Too small and he can’t shoot
Finally the 3s!!!
After so long
@saxophoneplaya yeah, his mid range wasn't bad so maybe 🤔
He can do that as well in the NBA if he gets the chance to play more time.
the commentator didnt know kawamura during fiba world coz his good 3 point shooter.
His fundamentals are so clean it's a joy to watch.
the commentator obviously downplaying Kawamura's shooting
insane

The purest 3PM I've seen in a while
0:05 says who?
He’s a hater announcing G league games 😅
Just look up his career 3pt shooting %.
Yuki is fantastic but I just don’t know if the height and physicality would allow for him to be a consistent rotation piece on a NBA roster. He should lowkey go to Europe and light it up there cause he’s also a fantastic passer so where it’s more team oriented ball in Europe, he could thrive.
Commentator just switched to basketball??? His 3pt shooting and playmaking is the reason Memphis signed him.
❤❤❤❤❤
Yuki Kawamurdered the play commentator.
lol wtf is this commentator saying? bruh did not watch them fiba/olympics/ and bleague highlights. Yuki just took some time to get used to the 3pt line of the NBA since he’s been used to FIBA 3pt line his whole life.
Usually bad at 3 -> Killing it with 3 🫨
When he is able to rush the shot, it’s good. The problem is he drives a lot of contested step back looks.
The announcer has zero knowledge about Yuki, probably why he commentates the G league lol.
Kawamura hits 7 3s in the broadcaster's mouth 😂
“Yuki is not a good 3 point shooter” yuki: hold my tonkatsu ramen
He’s not tho
@@Intellectualcuriosity-i5hstop hating lol. At least he has confidence with his 3 point shot now
@@ragetempo he averaged low percent from the Field and 3 Point his whole career

Once he gets adjusted he should get time behind Scottie Pippen Jr when JA is hurt
He kinda reminds me with shooting and dribbling skills of Isiah Thomas.
Yuki turned into Game 6 Klay lol

@@_risuwr Yuki just had to adjust to the NBA 3 point line distamce which is longer than Japan's FIBA's 3 point line distance.

Hype???? If it was bronny .. boi I tell u😂 and I love bronny and bron but I’m being real
Asking about the skin color of the commentator is a valid question, lol!

뭔가 슛폼이 바뀐거 같아

Nba league cannot stand another linsanity , thats why he got no more minuteplay to play
