Filipino basketball sensation Kai Sotto continues to impress USA basketball scouts.
Ballislife, one of the most popular sports site that focuses mainly on the high school basketball scene in the US, included Sotto as one of the top 25 All-American players of 2020.
It has been over a year since Sotto, together with his family, chose to fly abroad and hone his skills with the Atlanta-based The Skills Factory basketball clinic and the results could not get any better.
Joining in different pocket tournaments, Sotto was named as The Skills Factory Most Valuable Player while carrying his team to the tourney title after posting an insane average of 27 points, 10.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 4.3 rejections per game.
Sotto was also included in the Basketball without Borders camp as a part of the NBA All-Star event that chose the top 64 high school players from across the globe.
Jalen Green, a Filipino-American who is a five-star recruit going college but chose to skip and participate in the G league program, was also included in the top 25 list.
