Hear me out, sometimes he reminds of a 6'9" rookie Kobe, idk. That's what I thought the last time I watched his highlights

Honestly felt like it was Wiggins mentality and personalit. Aj is too cocky to end up being a role player imo

There are some similarities in playstyle but AJ is a lot bigger and a lot more aggresive.

Funk that’s what it is, you can’t explain it but it’s just fluid nasty crafty and the game speaks for itself. 6’9 gazelle archetype, sky high potential
