Comparing the top 14 rookies to 2022 NBA Draft prospects



Cade Cunningham -

 Johnny Davis

Cade is much more athletic, but they show overall similarity.


Jalen Green-

Jaden Hardy

They are/were both Ignite guards who are highly athletic, but have shot poorly.


Evan Mobley-

Chet Holmgren

They are both lanky big men who can anchor a defense.


Scottie Barnes-

Kendall Brown

These 2 are big wing/combo forward players. They are great defenders and make lots of high IQ plays


Jalen Suggs-

  TyTy Washington

This was a tough one, as there aren't many high level guards in this draft. Washington is posting similar numbers to Suggs though.


Josh Giddey-

 Dyson Daniels

Giddey's comp is a fellow Aussie. They are both big combo guards.


Johnathan Kuminga-

 AJ Griffin

I love these guys, as they are big power forwards with huge defensive upside. They are also highly athletic, and have shown flashes of a shooting touch.


Franz Wagner-

 Wendell Moore

I prefer a Kendall Brown comp, but I already used him. However, Moore does have similarities. They are both swiss army knife type players who play solid defense.


Davion Mitchell-

  Andre Curbelo

Mitchell is a small defensive menace. This is exactly what I expect Curbelo to be. They are both older prospects as well.


Ziaire Williams-

 Patrick Baldwin Jr

These 2 were both highly touted prospects coming out of high school. They were billed as athletic forwards who can hit any shot, both struggled. I buy Ziaire's improvement more though.


James Bouknight-

Jaden Ivey

This one was easy. Both of them are super athletic, scoring guards.


Joshua Primo-

 Max Christie

These guys have really similar per 36 stats. Primo was a lot more efficient, but expect Christie's shooting to come around.


Chris Duarte-

 Trevor Keels

This one, as well as the next one are tough since there aren't really any elite shooters in this draft. Early in the season, Keels showed lots of shooting flashes. Like Duarte, he has a big body and plays solid defense.


Moses Moody-

 Blake Wesley

Both have potential as knockdown shooters. They play solid defense and have similar play style.
