Jimmy:Ur the face of the New York Knicks
Kristaps: laughs knowing he’s gonna request a trade
Jake Miller lol
I visioned the same damn thing as soon as he saod that lmao
Jake Miller but he didn’t request a trade
Lxcture Wavrain yes
He didn't request a trade, he just got traded.
His English is really good
Owais Kahloon Because they teach english in Europe
He has no accent
FallenGamer 627 yes he does lmao
Ik very impressed
Most of 13 year old in Europe can already speak English.
The mavericks logo is basically a unicorn
Dallas Unicorns
It’s a Maverick...
Adrian Lol ye
@@adriandeleon163 what the hell is a maverick
Adrian De León it is not a maverick...
It's the first time that I have seen so many Latvian comments :D
that's it.. LUL

Wow it's so cool to see someone who is Latvian doing great things. My grandpa came here from Latvia as a little boy and I've had to pleasure of visiting there once
Jeez, let him talk. Half the interview is just Jimmy talking.
SD_ the other half is porzingis talking
Just shows there were no other guests available so they pick a knick, ranger, yankee or whatever.
Also when a host is talking (working) most of the time shows they don't know very much about the person or subject. Because they don't know how to react to some things that person might say.
All Jimmy knows is: Latvia, tall guy, Knicks, Melo gone, unicorn. Things people allready know.
SD_ you can’t tell Kris is shy? He’s giving short answers
to be fair... Porzingis isn't giving him much to work with
Well remember he's not an actor or some entertainer. I think KP handled this pretty good for his first big talk show ever.
Leģenda!

That chair is not big enough for him. Lol

Lolz
He's 7'3" (221 cm) btw.
Thanos The Farmer thats a nice height
@@jakewalker7393 Too much i.m.o
Porzingis looks in pain Everytime Jimmy reminds him that he plays for the Knicks....😂😂
Prateek Sarkar yeah he's leaving
I'm finished 😱😭😂💀
Arthur Chichester he comming to Houston
Prateek Sarkar He'll be in LA soon enough.
Cant blame him, their shitty fanbase booed him on draft day because they didn't want him
Ahh, so cool!!! So proud of this dude right here! Greetings from Latvia!!! :)
Proud to be a latvian
Where's the country located at?
Sōsuke Aizen It is in the Baltic states. It is located east from Russia
*west
There is a thing called map
Sōsuke Aizen . Google maps ...... just look it up ....
He seems so sweet and shy I love that legend
Remember doing this interview. Thanks for the Opportunity Jimmy!
Kristap, mēs ar tevi lepojamies! :)
Kristap we are proud of you!

Tieshi ta
Guy is pure class and is an incredible player he represents all of the good about the NBA
I am from Sevilla, Spain. I meet Kristaps there after a game and I felt very short standing in front of him (I´m 6 feet 2 inches tall)... this was a very strange feeling for me because in south Spain most people are a way shorter than me !!
By the way he´s a very nice guy who speaks spanisch very very well !!

“I just think that’s pretty rad” lmao shove it jimmy
"You are the face of the Knicks"
Wonder how that turned out
bro his english is actually really good
Wow #1 tendencēs Latvijā 👍🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻
I really love kristap. 7'3 plays like a guard. Indeed a unicorn.
Love this guy
The new King of New York
Jimmy to porzingis at the end "Win that championship buddy"
LMFAAOOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAAAAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOOAOAOAOAAOOOOOOOOAOAAAAOOOOOO
big ups to kristaps one of my favorite players. prolly number 5 out of my top 5 so dope
Proud to be Latvian 🇱🇻
Who’s here after he got traded?
"They're so good, they're so talented".. looking at Jimmy's face cracks me up everytime haha
1:52 “People come to the garden and they wanna see you” oh not anymore mans left us
“Win that championship buddy” you can sense the desperation of every New Yorker come out when he said that and then kristapz left. Fast forward to 2019 at least we have RJ Barrett...
Savior Kicks an inconsistent version of Zion lol
When I was watching my country win the European championship in basketball this year, I was afraid of this guy when we faced Latvia lol. Unbeliavable player, and a really nice guy. Hopefully Luka Doncic joins him in New York next year! 🤔
I love how New York he's become! Perfect fit!
Čau Latvieši!!
xannqvikax . Aļļo
they should do a dub over when he says new York kicks to a new York guy yelling the fugggggin Maverickksss
Coming from latvia and looking... Damn we have a star from our country😂

1:03 Jimmy leans in expecting an insane answer, but you can see the disappointment in his face when he answered😂
Damn he outgrew his parents by a lot!
Julian Perez ikr? When he said they were 6’1 and 6’4 I was like how tf are you 7’3 then?!
@@flextits4883 my mom is 165, dad is 172, grandmother 156 and grandfather is 170... I'm 15 and 183 cm. From Latvia too
Love this dude
Kristaps you're an amazing player!!! I enjoy watching you play. Keep up the great work!!! 💪🏀👍☺
LETS GO KRISTAPS!!!!!!!
KP and Luka will be an insane duo for years to come.
I'm actually proud of myself.... that I'm from Latvia
KP playing like those Knicks days in Washington right now lol
I'm happy to see a Latvian on the Jimmy Fallon show, but I wish Kuzminskas was invited too...
Anonymous Person KUZ
Erik Lerström And where are you from? Sweden or something? Are you jealous that Lithuania has many good basketball players and your country has none? It seems like you either don't know anything about basketball or you're just jealous...
+Anonymous Person erik is right tho, americans don't give a fuck about any league other than the nba and often consider any other league trash
I think it is awesome that a Latvian is on this show!
Yo I met him no lie at a Knicks game last year when he was injured, I was in the vip section and he was walking around and luckly we took the last picture before he went in a room. It’s tough to see him on the Mavs, wish him the best of luck.
Porzingoat
15 years in Latvia and 5 years in Spain and he said he got drafted when he was 19. Obviously, Fallon didn't watch NBA draft night (when they boo'd his ass) to know his age!
Proud to be Latvian!
Порзингис Красавчик!
we love you porzingis, from indonesiaaa😍
0:48 and the neighbor is 7'1"
22 years old . Wtf . so young ... I am old .
Damn when I was 22 my friends could hardly steer me away from the bars around Berkeley/Oakland!
I didn’t know his English was this good
Will be one of the greats, IF he can stay healthy!
Malacis....lepojos ar musu Latviešiem🔥
Great guy 👍
I remember when Dwight Howard postered him. He’s come along way since then
What a rare talent
2,23 mts. Amazing.
PORZINGOD 🕊
He is now 2.21. I wonder how tall was he when he was 19. Anyone ?
he look like a rly nice guy :D
Kristaps is the muthaf*ckin man
wow he speaks english and spanish so well
His English is Awesome
Omg! Porziņģis is the best
I know about Tingus Pingus from Lat-Tavia. 🇺🇸 🗽 🏀 🇱🇻
he keeps interrupting him lol
Rip kristaps and the knicks
His English is getting better
Hes from LATVIA and me too
A cupcake calls another individual "unicorn", what a surprise.
Lol
Latvia is proud.
Kristaps Porzingis: The Next Generation Latvian Dirk Nowitzki!
Can't wait for his Talents to Bloom in Dallas!
te ir tik daudz latviešu wow
There's my beloved unicorn!
I don't know if I told you but when I got my ticket for city transportation in salt lake city officers got on to check tickets and told me the one I had just bought was expired I think from the day before
Fallon: I've never seen you on a talk show, it's exciting.
Porzingis: It's my first time.
Fallon: It is, yea! You never been on a talk show, yea?
Porzingis: *thinks internally* (wtf bro?)
Father Leo hahaha
Porzingus just pulled a derik rose😭
beefstewe not funny, learn how to spell.
Prieks ka kāds latvietis ir izsities un nes Latvijas vārdu pasaulē. 😇 Keep goin' KP you are the best. 😎
he will bring that championship alright...........to D-Town!
His English is perfect
This guy speaks amazing English, I bet he speaks amazing Spanish as well
Aaaaaaand he's gone.
he is good at dunks
“Your the face of the Knick”😂😂
It's so weird being from the same country xd
His english is so fluent.he doesnt even sound like he is from another country
3:58 that's one flat pancake
The questions are highschool level at best: how tall are you? Are you from latvia? Are your parents proud of you? Do you live together with your brothers? What kind of answers is he expecting?
Welcome to Dallas💙
It feels wierd seeing the name Kristaps in the comments because my name in real life is Kristaps and It feels good L0L
