I really hope with this guy people realize Canada has amazing basketball players. Canada maybe not have the support like they do in the States but we have talent when the world realizes that so many Canadians will break out and become superstars. I really believe that could start with this guy.
He can be better than FLynn. He's uber quick, can u imagine him in Pick and Roll? He'll get to the rim every possession, the question is strength and range. If he can knock down an open jumper and hit open threes its a wrap.
Jahii Carson is just as good as Myck Kabongo. No disrespect but he is just as good. There are people with just as much talent that don't get recognized. He's really good but not the best.
hahah this guy is a joke legit he not good haha look up anderson they have two guys that play for canada as well and they are 10 times better and u wanna see a good team check the stats on nicholson catholic college unbeaten and dont even play there starters after the first 2 mins in league play hahah joke!

It's really a shame that H.S. Basketball has become AAU Basketball - where no one plays ANY defense! It's much easier to look good and to score points when the game is 1 dribble and go by someone. I didn't see anyone even TRY to guard this kid in this video. He stil looks solid and deceptively quick - but there's no way he's better than Austin Rivers. He's much more of a true PG, though.

yeah, he's damn good. seems to have that special PG swagger the good one's have to have. stop worrying about what those scouting/ranking goofs think. they get more wrong than they get right.
he's a good player and i won't hate since his from the same ethnicity as i am (Luba, situated in centre and south of Congo) but i don't think he's 6'2, he's smaller than that. he got good handles, and a nice courtvision but he really lacks in athleticy and length. To take it to the next level he needs more speed and strength. If not he needs to develop crazy range sort of like Stephen Curry, but i'll be following this player he's interesting
the reason myck is nice is because he can hit the open j and he works on his handles so he can get to the whole at will SIMPLE NO BRAINER WORK ON YOUR HANDLES AND YOUR J AND ULL BE A THREAT on the offensive end.....WORK HARDDDDDDD!!!!
Paul Jackson aka LIL Brandon Knight has some great ponential to play a similar game to Myck at Dr.Michael Krop High school and is currently on JV and bench player for Krops varisty. He says that he is just going to study his senior teammates game such as Angel Rodiguez so he can boost his rankings to be that star in a earlier stage. He plays PG as well as the SG and SF position standing 6''2 170lbs and is a freshmen phenomenon down in South beach {FLORIDA} so watch out for this rank freshmen.
from what I've seen in videos, the reason myck is so successful is his game is just pure creativity-- he's never forcing anything- I saw the same thing watching kevin pagos play in person and if myck is supposed to be better it is truly inspiring
athleticism isnt even a problem for myck. he is easily the quickest pg in the class. He has very good handles as well and can finish in traffic. all he needs is an elite jump shot and he is set. And by the way it is too early to talk about how he will do in the nba he's 17
@ain12591 you dont have to be flashy to be a good player he obviously has great court vision and is a good shooter. is it because he didnt pass behind the back or between the legs that he is overrated
I can do this and im a sophomore sheesh(right age too)...just need the exposure !...and plus austin rivers lit him up for 45 if his school is st benedicts !!!!!rivers is better!
at the recent Phase 1 All Canada Classic... Kabongo poured in 38 points at the Air Canada Center home of the Toronto Raptors.. he is definately the best point guard in Canada... better than Pangos or Notice
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you're overhyping him.....especially from these highlights he is nothing special....he has no exceptional speed, handles, defense, or athleticism......there are hundreds of players with more potential them him...granted he seems to be a good shooter....he just makes basic plays that anyone else can do don't give him any hype
@ain12591 If he isnt all that great then you must think the people in charge of Canada Basketball, at ESPN, and Clark Francis- the original talent scout are wrong. Clark said in the video that he could end up being better than Johnny Flynn, ESPN has him 9 overall, and he is the youngest player on Canada's national team by 5 years. But yeah, he's not all that special.
@danpon1 you speak the truth....the kid is an absolute baller....but he's not that special....rated #9 on espn....#11 on scout.....#24 on rivals (which is stupid)
@ain12591 overhyping? Are you crazy I go to school with him, I've seen majority of his games. I say he is (UNDERRATED). If enough media got out just like John Wall everyone would see his potential. And you are just baseing this off the one lil video.
@ain12591 uhh.. just because he doesn't do jaw droppin plays doesn't mean he isnt good enough for the hype.. plus he is athletic and fast.. maybe not as much as some players.. BUT being super athletic doesnt mean he isnt a great player.. look at steve nash.. the man can't jump for shit.. but is still one of the best pg in the nba
@ain12591 dude are you serious ? in these highlights he is playing not near his hardest , watch him play in the pangos all american camp ... pretty sure he got mvp? haha that has the top players from All of america, you can tell completely hes not even trying yet he is scoring with ease , there is a reason this guy will be in the NBA , he has incredible handles , better handles than any guard i've seen in highschool recently the only one i might say is close would be kyrie irving who is older...
@ain12591 he makes a lot play, which of the end of the day is better then a whole bunch of flashy stuff. He is a smart player, not always going for the homerun.
That day was Austin's on moment, Every player always has at least one game where all there shotz and moves are on points and fire. You cant judge a player by stats and one game.
he is better than austin rivers. argue all u want but u know its true. i went to the game that its showing most of the time(against that white team) 8-9 3-points. 37 total points
kiwi gardner or jahii carson,both of them would be a good match up for this guy.
