LAKERS assistant coach Phil Handy believes Kai Sotto is talented enough to make the NBA.

Handy is also head of player development for the Los Angeles Lakers.

As far as Handy is concerned, making the NBA is not a matter of if but just a matter of when for the 7-foot-3 Sotto. It’s all about that break.

“I believe he’s very talented. I don’t believe in putting timelines on athletes. I’ve had a chance to see him play for a couple of years. He’s naturally gifted. He spent some time down in Australia, and that helped develop his game” said Handy of Sotto.

“It could be this summer, it could be next year. It just depends on the opportunity.”
