Young Dirk? Karl-Anthony Towns? Kevin Durant? Rashard Lewis? Detlef Schrempf? Keith Van Horn? Is it ridiculous to say he reminds me of a taller, slower KD when he plays like that? I guess it's the relatively similar body type, fluidity of movement, stride length, arm length, and handles.
Doesn't mean I think he's going to be as good as KD playing that way. A comparison can be more so based on style, not efficacy. Zach Randolph and Nikola Jokic have stylistically similar post-up games but Nikola is far more efficient/effective as a back-to-the-basket scorer.
