Which players does Wiggins remind you of?

[Haymaker]

I can't really pin him down in terms of other players style, he does has a little bit of Tmac and Len Bias but for the most part he's unique. What u guys think?

[HylianNightmare]

tmac without the silky smooth stroke, YET

[WolfGang]

Lebron, Kobe and Jordan except better...yup.


Who the phuck is Len Bias?

I read somewhere in the last week that his college coaches said that he is not even the best player of his team on the practices.

Maybe people are overrating him too much because of his athleticism. We have to wait he play college ball first to evaluate him better.

i thought the quote was that he blended in too much during practices and coaches had to call him out on coasting, maybe i misread the article

[Pointguard]

Lebron, Kobe and Jordan except better...yup.

Horace Grant said Bias was a better athlete than Jordan. He definitely was bigger and stronger than Jordan. He had hook shots, triple pumps and some range. He didn't have Jordan's stylistic look but probably would have if he got older.

I think Wiggins would be most like Bias. Uncultivated style but capable of it all.

they have said he isnt even the best freshman, wayne selden has reportedly been better

people need to give the guy a chance to get acclimated. people calling him preseason player of the year, or first team all america are nuts, imo

We'll have to wait and see until he actually plays.

The kid has everything to prove, just no urgency to prove it right now.

Dominique!

I've posted this earlier on this site. This is the correct answer

Sorry but I don't like the Len Bias one. If anything I would say Jabari Parker is more a Bias replica

[Thorpesaurous]

I think the young TMac comp, before the jumper really refined, is pretty damn close. Right down to the tendency to meld in and defer a bit too much, or seem like there's a lack of focus.

He's got similar potential for defensive mayhem too that pops out from time to time.

[fpliii]

Rudy Gay

[noob cake]

Rudy Gay

Hyper-athletic Rudy Gay, who is incredibly athletic in the first place.

Questionable drive/motor
Questionable offensive game/jumpshot.
Great defensive potential due to athleticism.

"Lebron has always been my favorite player, the one i try to model my game after" - Andrew Wiggins.


Andrew Wiggins reminds exactly of that... a player who tries to model Lebrons game... tries.... he sure does have the athleticism down tho, but he is more of a two-foot leaper than Lebron, kindof like Gerald Green...

[Sakkreth]

Can't pick one player, but he'll be damn fun to watch.

[BoutPractice]

TMac gets thrown around most often (although there's the issue of ball distribution... Wiggins hasn't shown a natural talent for passing so far, only a willingness, which puts him more in the Durant category as a passer). I've also heard Dominique and Dr. J, though I think he'll end up with a better jumper than those two, but a less aggressive scoring mentality.

[#number6ix#]

Gerald Green

I don't get the tmac comparison... T Mac jumper was solid, handle was tight, and he was a good passer... I haven't seen wiggins consistently do any of that...

Plus t Mac was smooth... Wiggins is very stiff

[BoutPractice]

I don't think 'stiff' is a word you want to use to refer to Andrew Wiggins.

Lord help us all.

[Replay32]

I keep hearing he doesn't have a "motor". He won't be great without a motor. I've seen this kid play a few times and from what I've seen this description is spot on.

The one thing that stands out about Wiggins though is the quickness on his 2nd and third jumps. He's a very quick and explosive leaper. This alone won't make him great at the NBA level.

Reminds me of Gerald Green.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Michael Jordan, in Darius Miles' body, with Duncan's composure, and Russell's intangibles. Except better than that.

Not that I don't agree with you (because I do!), but what's his motivation to actually play hard at college and bust his ass? Everytime he busts his ass, it's a risk to his future if he gets injured. He has adidas knocking on his door already to make him ultra rich. He's already the #1 pick for next year, this is not some Felipe Lopez type shit (Lopez woulda been a #1 pick had he skipped college, but he went to St Johns like an idiot and ruined his stock). He has already been hailed as the next heir.

I saw him in highlights, maybe a Wade with a 3 point shot?

[Kurosawa0]

I kinda see him as a bigger, more explosive version of Paul George.

[no pun intended]

Lebron, Kobe and Jordan except better...yup.
