How Good Was Toni Kukoc Actually?

Kukoc absolutely deserves a spot in the hall of fame.

This man is an underrated legend he barely had problems with his teammates

Toni KUKOC unknown records: Highest 3PT % improvement in NBA history -Kukoc improved from 26.2% in 1999-00 to 44.6% in 2000-01. Most Game winning shots in a season (1993-1994) -KUKOC lead the league with game winning shots all in his ROOKIE year. This was the year Toni made the legendary buzzer beater against NY Knicks. In my opinion his game winning shots rank amongst the best of all time, A) Scoring in clutch moments B) Degree of difficulty was insane. Top 10 in league for W/S Winshares in 2 separate years! Only player to ever 3 PEAT with Club and NBA Team - 3 x club champion - 3x NBA champion Toni will be the only player in history to ever accomplish this. None the less there is no reason toni shouldn’t be in the Naismith Basketball HOF. I shouldn’t even need to plead his case as his resume is amongst the most impressive in the history of the sport.Ontop of Toni being not only the first stretch 4 in the game but being one of the first people to pave the way for international basketball (Add he was on the most popular sports franchise team EVER) he is the pioneer of European basketball. I think it’s enough to say that if MJ and Pippen have advocated for Toni to be inducted .. it’s just long overdue, the disrespect is real.

Kukoc is really underrated.

... and Jokic, must mention him ... Great summarised story of Kukoc. I am from Serbia and I am proud that Kukoc came from ex Yugoslavia. If only these leagues today Serbian,Croatian,Slovenian,... are half as strong as Yugosalvian league was.

His name reminds me of greatness. A huge West African fan of Toni Kukoc.

I feel like kukoc could’ve had a good career if him and Scottie stickers together I mean the guy was like a 90’s kind of KD

Not only was he really good, he was wicked clutch too. And he's a 6th man, let that sink in. That Bulls team was ridiculously deep and well coached.

I honestly cannot tell you why but Tony Kukoc is my favorite basketball player of all time. This was when the DREAM TEAM of the Bulls had Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman. I just gravitated towards him and was like "Yeah, that's my dude right there". People are often surprised whenever I bring this up.

This is one of the best videos covering the great legendary career of Toni KUKOC, and I’ve seen them all. Besides the fact you mispronounced Dino Radjas last name the entire video and misspelling Drazen Petrovic last name (just teasing) you really hit the nail on the head covering key parts of his career. You actually said many rare things a lot of people don’t know about him, telling me you really dug deep!! Respect for the video brother!!

He wasn't good, he was one of the best ever! Greetings from the banks of Danube, Serbia

KD a goat for rockin his jersey

Thanks for the vid. For me, a lot of great European players nowadays flocking into NBA and were treated way better than Toni was. He surely left his legacy in NBA for others to have better opportunity and priveleges. However, as much as I like many European players now, there will be noone like Toni, and I'm glad I'd lived and watched his games through that era, and it was a wonderful ride.

Toni a legend, my favourite Euro player of all time

From the croatian interviews I saw with Kukoc, I would charaterise him as a real Dalmatian man. He is too humble for his own NBA career i think. Just like Phil Jackson sad he only scratched the surface of his talents. He was one of the most talented players then, with his passing, shooting, size and touch. His IQ was high. If he got to the NBA now and coaches and teammates gave him confidence and trust like they do today, he would be Doncic. period

He deserves to be a Hall of Famer

Kukoc belongs in the Hall of Fame. He should've been there years ago. But as long as he gets in eventually it's all good.

He's the only player to 3 peat in Euroleague and NBA, + euroleague MVP,+FIBA MVP, sixth man of the year, yet not HOF

He was the difference between jazz and bull

Great analysis. All in one place. Best Toni Kukoc recap on the internet!
