Don't see it - both were pretty big deals growing up playing hoops. Both five star guys. Some differences sure - but not at all opposites.

Hunter OTOH a 3 star guy - this guy wasn't considered a top prospect - and it turns out he wasnt.
I admit I never paid attention to Young in college and didn't see him this preseason. But in every other game I've seen him, regular season, preseason, or summer league, I've never seen someone so invisible. Hang around the perimeter, receive a pass, relay the pass to someone else on the perimeter or miss a jumper. His size is nothing special for a 2, smallish for a 3; I've never seen him use his supposed athleticism.
Meanwhile Brown drives aggressively and makes something happen constantly while in the game. Couple that with his rep as a bad shooter, and Young's rep as a good shooter: opposites.
