in terms of what their ceiling is/was as NBA players?

I don't notice anything glaring that Deandre can/could do that Azubuike can't. physically Azubuike is ahead of Jordan at the same stage, athleticism is right there and despite being a four year guy, he just barely turned 21 this fall. Neither guy can throw it in the ocean from 15 feet.

Jordan is way more athletic. Azubuike has more of a back to the basket game. I dont see him being as good as Jordan has been.

Jordan was a way better athlete, Dok also isn't 21 yo lol

Both are freak athletes. De'Andre is just generationally explosive. Doka has a tremendous strength+athleticism combination which makes him tremendously impactful. Doka has a lot of drop defense tendencies. Jordan is twitchy. He has an extreme pop and good lateral mobility for his size, especially in his prime.

People are really underestimating Azubuike's athleticism. Unfortunately, Udoka's free throw shooting makes DJ look like Stephen Curry.

If you believe Buike is 21, I have an election to sell you.

His on paper athleticism is actually a lot more impressive than Jordan’s, but he definitely doesn’t play withh that type of fluidity.

Proof to how overrated max vertical is. Jordan’s is pretty mediocre, but he just gets up so damn easily.

Hassan Whiteside is better comparison

Desagana Diop is a better comparison

Udunka gonna dominate.
