Yuta can score but sometimes he need to be more selfish and confident when he has the ball

[@nateboii2638]

on god bro and if he gets a bit more minutes I'm sure he'll be able to prove himself

[@ToxiclRevieved]

he just wants to fill in the role he was suited for... at the end of the day, he's there to do his job for the organization

[@SpaceLikeAwareness]

I remember when Yuta played on the Brooklyn Nets summer league team, he was aggressive and scored at will. The problem is the other players on the Brooklyn Nets summer league team stopped passing him the ball which looked like it was out of jealousy. Brooklyn Nets ended up not signing him but the Memphis Grizzlies did and put him on the G League team. I have never seen Yuta Wantanabe as aggressive as he was on the Brooklyn Nets team ever since, I hope he returns to that old form as he continues to play on the Toronto Raptors.

[@deliriousarmy3940]

Confidence comes when you get consistent minutes. Lets see if Nurse will continue to play him. He never got that much in Memphis.

[@brockman562]

the countdown is super common in modern game and what all basketball camps encourage. game has changed to a fast tempo, shooting in 5 or 10 seconds is great cuz you have a better chance scoring on opponent percentage-wise when D isn't set and they're on the balls of their feet. super common bro. camps/practices also teach to shoot with 3 dribbles, 2 dribbles and even 1 dribble.

[@obykanoby2555]

Payton is insane. He is the player I look up to the most as a small guard. And its the the details that elevate him over other players. The change of pace, the precision, and the way he uses his body to penetrate and create space. Everything about his game is perfectly excecuted. He may not be the most athletic, or the biggest, but damn he proves that hard works really does pay off.

Payton was arguably the biggest steal of the draft given his ability to just play winning basketball at the number 26 pick.

I'm a Celtics fan. Pritchard was a steal for us. I loved Yuta in Memphis last season, as well. I don't even look at his percentages from that season. His highlights show enough flashes of what he has to offer.

[@mmafan2223]

@@m_w501 Hey I saw Payton play against my Miami Heat. Thing that strikes me is that he does not play like a rookie. Very cerebral player, always doing the right thing. I mean he got that tip in with 0.2 seconds left to steal the game! Very impressive ya'lls were right!
