Thanks fiba this will bring more oppurtunity to kai to be discovered 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

[@kimfuentes207]

Improvement is not in the Philippines Kai. Coaching staff is purely political. Better to practice in Europe or Us

[@ryanpajaro21]

Kim Fuentes at least he chose US to train. Develop a Kareem Abdul Left Skyhook, he will be unstoppable

[@jaz7119]

Europe is a good move for him like Porzingis

[@Rey-lg8sx]

True

[@rsrracer16lions12]

Owlright owlright!! Nasa europe at america ang succes sa basketball

[@chowderchowdown]

​@@jaz7119 But Porzingis got significantly better in US, same with Giannis. US would definitely bring out Kai's potential.

[@princekurtmontales2252]

2 months of training. Its already paying off! Keep grinding Mr. future of philippine basketball!!

[@0401412740]

Prince Montales not a chance. Kobe Paras is better tbh.

[@manuela.roscas9783]

He is only 17 years old and Qualify to compete again in FIBA U19 in 2021.

[@misterawkward6612]

I hope he makes it to the league. He’s a very humble and determined young man and an old school type of big man player. met him once in Manila where he was The Finals MVP of the Ateneo University HS basketball team in 2017 and he dominated in that tournament with his skill set. This kid hasn’t changed at all, still very kind and respectful yet he has improved his skill as a big man. Stay Strong young man!

[@jaysoncastro2190]

Kai needs more stamina to sustain his efficiency all throughout the game

[@3zPzlemonsqueezy]

Agreed!

[@nathanlagasan1433]

Strength actually mas priority nya. Stamina will come once he get's that strength. Pushing, shoving and trying to position yourself inside while banging bodies and boxing out opponents exerts more stamina rather than jumping and running. Still very young. 2 months lang sa dedicated training, naging malaki na improvement. How much more kung mas matagal pa.

[@theoldnakedsnake]

He's got what it takes to be NBA star, skill is there already. He only needs stamina to sustain till end game. And he's only 17, lots of rooms to improve. Being Filipino, I'm very proud of him. It's your life Kai don't get pressured with expectations. I'm sure with your kind of person future is good for you. Just be healthy and be humble always .

[@Kai-zp5sd]

*He can be like Kristaps Porzingis if he develops aglity and strength*

[@athenstar10]

He is agile, it just doesn't show in Fiba tourneys because he have to keep up with the physicality around him. If you'll watch his High school league videos, he can seriously keep up with the guards and even starting to dribble the ball like a wingman, ( though no crossover yet).
