That is prety much what Giannis was in the greek 2nd division. He used his athleticism and handling to drive into the lane, dunk it, dump it to the big man after the penetration or kick it to a perimeter shooter.
LeBron's game. Seriously?

What a shock his body must be going through. From a heart-healthy Mediterranean diet to a Wisconsin diet of beer, brats, cheese, and apparently smoothies.
Yes, that's all MIlwaukeeans eat is beer and cheese. There really are no other alternatives on most menus. Just Pabst and mild cheddar.

What’s perhaps most tantalizing about Giannis Antetokounmpo is not his definitive excellence in any particular dimension of basketball, but instead his tremendous potential to excel in so many aspects of the game. At just 19 years of age, he already boasts the physical credentials to compete in the NBA — tremendous leaping ability, dangerous end-to-end foot speed, dexterous hands and a Gumby-esque wingspan that stretches 7’3” in length — but it is his intuitive sense for the sport and apparent comfort with all of its demands that set him apart, and gives spectators the sense they are watching a prodigy discover himself before their very eyes.

“For being 19 and basically being on his own — he doesn’t have any family here — it’s got to be a tough situation for him,” Wolters said. “I’m sure he misses his family, but who wouldn’t? But he’s done a very good job of adjusting; he’s handled it very well. He has a really positive attitude. That’s what stands out about him more than anything. He’s been through a lot already just coming over here to the United States.
“I think he knows this is his dream come true, to play in the NBA, and he’s really taking advantage of it.”
