Re: Pro Comp for Kristap Porzingis

I think Ibaka is most realistic comparision for him, they share many of the same strenghts and weaknesses. Thier ACB league stats are also pretty similar as well.
- good helps defenders, shot-blockers
- not as good in man defense
- reliable mid-range shooters with range out to the 3-point line
- can finish above the rim
- not adept at creating shots from themselves
Obviously Porzingis is longer and better passer, while Ibaka is stronger. Is that enough to make him a Top 3 pick. I am not sure, depends how you project Russell and Okafor.
