OP once again trying to play captain obvious to disguise his lack of basketball knowledge. We know for a fact he doesn’t watch college or high school basketball, so he’s just trying to fit in
Clearly this kid is a lottery pick (for now) with a very advanced game. The issue is that it may be too advanced. He is a pro, but he may not have much of a ceiling left. We’ve seen very elite shot makers in high school (Emoni Bates, Jaden Hardy) just not translate in college or the pros. Not to say that will be the case, but I only take so much from these games.
AJ by contrast isn’t as skilled and doesn’t shoot it as well but is more athletic and still has room to grow in his game.
Both can be good pros but it’s always hard to tell when kids are just so much more physically advanced and dominant than their opponents in high school. Same issue I have with Cam Boozer.
