I wish he'd attack the rim the way Latrell Sprewell used to.

Closest comparison is a young Kawhi Leonard for sure, not just in terms of his game but in terms of his quiet confidence.

Another one could be Andrei Kirilenko, though I think Jaylen's game is skewed more to the offensive end than Kirilenko.

I ilke Iggy as Jaylen's comp. Iggy is probably a better fascillitator but very similar size, scoring and defensive ability.

He'll never have Iggy's handles or passing, most likely. If Brown's defense ever became as good as AI2's, we'd be in very good shape.

Ger'Nique Wilkins: Blend of 'Nique (top 5 player for a good stretch) and brother Gerald, who was a pretty good player for a while.

Right in the middle. Maybe a top 25-30 player for a decent stretch, strong defender, smart, intelligent, great teammate.

A Corey Maggette that plays defense would be pretty sweet.

This. Or a shorter Manute Bol.

Tatum is Paul George, Jaylen is Jimmy Butler, and instead of trading for them we're gonna grow our own.

Probably. I feel pretty good about Jaylen becoming an All NBA level defender eventually, and with his strength and athleticism, he could have Iggy-level versatility.

A better Dee Brown?

A better Randy Brown!   Anyone remember him?  Think he only played 1 year on the C's.
A more athletic Hubie Brown from the 80's with similar height haircuts.

Read that last line again. One more time.

Spud Webb.

On a serious note.....like 70% version of Kawhi. The ability to play within a system is invaluable, at least in the early stages until you are ready to be the star you are.
