All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. —Isaiah 53:6
He is more like Akashi than Kuroko
He is more like akashi than kuroko as , kawamura brings out the superstar from inside his teammates like akashi used to do ( before obtaining emperor eyes and final 5 or so minutes in winter cup finals)
If you are to bring manga as comparison, he is more like Miyagi from Slam Dunk. Their similarities is both are the shortest player on the court, both use their speed and passing skills to beat their opponents. Slam Dunk is arguably the most popular sports manga ever, a movie adaptation in Japan last year was a maga hit at box office.
LFG!!!!
Real life ryota miyagi from slamdunk anime
He’s more like Akashi imo
He is going to sell 3 million jerseys. Great marketability.
Kuroko❤
Hes everything kuroko wanted to be. Yuki is playing against guys kuroko has hanging in his bedroom wall.
He’s more like Miyagi from Slam Dunk.
If the grizzlies give this guy minutes it will help tempt me into getting nba league pass. He jumped off the screen watching Japan in the Olympics and he's playing with the same fearlessness
Yuki must have a passion for basketball. With his elite speed, agility, and hand eye coordination, he could have went pro at any sport where his hight wouldn't be such a disadvantage. He must really not care about baseball or soccer
あー、やっぱりそういう見られ方してたんですね😊
It is an insult to compare Yuki with Kuroko. Kuroko cannot shoot and not athletic
Kind of crazy too because he easily dropped 20-30 during the olympics.
I loved yuki from the Olympics he has so much heart
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING HE IS LITERALLY KUROKOS
who ever grizzlies scout is he needs a raise
Very nice NBA career by Yuta Watanabe. Six solid years, earned millions. Now, he can relax and play in his home town with big contract and marketing.
Can't wait to watch G League Hustle. This Memphis team of Huff, Oni, Bacot, Pereira, and Kawamura will be so much fun to watch. Morant and Edey should both play with the Hustle…it's a better crew than Grizzlies.
I hope he gets playing time and not just a sideshow
Not sure why you say Kuroko… He's more a Fujima (from Slam Dunk) than Kuroko. In fact, if the Grizzlies are smart, they'll take a cue from how Shoyo played and put 4 big men on court with Yuki. I guess you've never read Slam Dunk?
Too bad they didn't give him a regular contract. Hopefully he doesn't disappear in the G league. That tends to happen to talented players who weren't drafted.
