Per 40 Flip would have had a 50 burger today. 22 points in 16 minutes
Not sure there is an exact one. Not a lot of freshman bigs who have put up the stats he has while being one of the focal points on offense with not a lot of help. I also think he is more athletic than anyone you have named and a better shooter.

I mean if you can't find a comp doesn't that tell ya something?
On a sprained ankle
Yes, it means he is a unique player and there is not always a one to one comp for every player. What is the comp for Wemby?

or use the first pick by trading back some and getting some future assets?
Just looking at the list of bigs with >20% usage....I kinda see Bagley with much worse athleticism/rim finishing but way better effort. Shooting? We'll see. I kinda see them in the same role and maybe a similar overall end product with different ways of getting there. Bagley/Hartenstein would be my comp and I do deserve credit because that's only 25% white comparison lol.
Plus usage bigs just aren't that common, and I do not see that as a positive in the same way that 7'5 shooting C's with handles are uncommon.

There's plenty of comps for him....
Olynyk, Markkanen, John Collins. Just about any face up 4 who is versatile. Plus the league is trending towards jumbo sized versatile players. The ecosystem of the NBA is more friendly towards developing but guys with these skillets than it was when KO or Lauri where coming up.
I don't even think he *has* to shoot it at that high of a level to be a positive player. He's a far better defender than he gets credit for and he's a talented passer and ball handler. I think more of his potential lies in improving his body.
Absolutely not unless it's like trading back two spots and you get something.
