Seems bigger and way more athletic though.

More athletic I would probably agree, but not sure he is any bigger
Are you talking about RJ Barrett, or?

Except for that 9 assist part. 9 assists in a college game is pretty noteworthy.
I don’t see the comp at all. I thought you maybe meant Richard Jefferson after beginning to assume you could not have meant RJ Barrett. You think AJ is not substantially bigger and athletic?
FWIW, my way too early to tell feeling on this draft is that the top 3 (A.J., Peterson, Boozer) are extremely good, but not necessarily can't miss franchise changers. In other words I think they are closer to Harper last year than Flagg. I think there is a pool of very interesting players outside of the top 3 that could make the 4-10 range an extremely attractive range.
In other words, I'm not as concerned about getting a top 3 pick as I was pre-season, but am more concerned about keeping our pick no matter what. It's still way too early to say that for sure and I might feel differently as the season progresses, just some early thoughts with where I see things today.

I think he's a notch bigger/more athletic, but they are undoubtedly similar in terms of play style and strengths/weaknesses.
Hmm? RJ Barrett was billed as a point guard. AJ is not.
I mean, most of these high end prospects are billed as having PG ability. RJ was never billed as a PG. He was billed as a star do it all wing in the making who's strength is downhill attacking.
