Kai Sotto: “It’s pretty good so far. [I’ve] been enjoying the process.”
KAI SOTTO — The basketball player recently spoke about his experience in the NBA Summer League this year.
The 7-foot-3 Filipino basketball player wasn’t able to play for the Orlando Magic in their campaign in the 2023 NBA Summer League as he was a “DNP (Did Not Play – Coach’s Decision)” in the team’s two losses against the Detroit Pistons and the Indiana Pacers so far.
Kai, however, showed an appreciation for the entirety of the NBA Summer League process, as seen in a video posted by NBA Philippines on its Facebook page on Tuesday, July 11, 2023.
In the video, the basketball player said that he has been enjoying the process and it has been a fun experience so far.
“It’s pretty good so far. [I’ve] been enjoying the process,” he said. “We started training in Orlando and then now in Vegas so it’s been fun. [I’m] surrounded by really good guys and coaches.”

The basketball player also said that he’s trying to make the most of his time with the Orlando Magic, adding that he will be ready whenever their head coach Dylan Murphy calls his name.
According to him, his stint in the NBA Summer League this year is part of representing the Philippines.
