Dadiet reminds of KP, as in for an overseas kid he is incredibly seasoned in terms of his grasp of the American game. You can tell he's been preparing all his life for it like KP did.

Did KP being an immature entitled dick also part of the process? The kid had issues and he did sort them out.

KP came from a tiny island in Latvia and at 18/19 years old was ready to take on the NBA and all that encompasses when he got there. He understood the culture, spoke perfect English, was not scared of the lights. I see a lot of that in 18 y.o Pacome.

not sure what your debating on my sarcastic remark.
What did you see? A French kid who speaks well? Good. Hope he can articulate that into lots of buckets. What can you tell us about his education? WHere he grew up? His parents?
You see similarities@ Two EuroTeens who speak well. What else?
BTW,
Liepāja (pronounced [liepaːja] ⓘ) is a state city in western Latvia, located on the Baltic Sea. It is the largest city in the Kurzeme Region and the third-largest in the country after Riga and Daugavpils. It is an important ice-free port. The urban area has 100,000 residents, 66,000 in the city limits.
What tiny island is Kristaps from? Nope, he grew up in a city that has cultural centers, sports teams, higher education, etc. These kids turn pro at 14 with farm clubs and still have to go to school. YOu make it like he is "encino man" and crawled out from a rock or came from a family living in the forest .
End of the day all want this kid to flourish bit time. All good.
