Following Potential 2026 Draftees

AJ has played 6 games in the month of December. These are his December stats:
27.8 points per game
8 rebounds per game
5.7 assists per game
2.3 steals per game
65.9% field goal percentage
77.9% free throw percentage
29.4% three point percentage (been saying from day 1 that 3 point shooting and loose handle are the things that he needs to improve. His midrange is elite though)
2.5 TO's per game
1 foul committed
6-0 record
 
Weird amount of AJ-TMac comparisons instead of AJ-Kobe imo.

T-Mac in general is a weird player for comparison as he had a four year prime, one historically elite season in that prime, and then a bunch of just OK years post injury.

IMO huge size differential between Kobe and tmac is main reason. Kobe was 6’4.5” and tmac was true 6’8”.

definitely a player that has become more overrated as the years have passed. soft, lackadaisical, are words that come to mind. while their size, athleticism and skillset are somewhat similar - hence the comparisons - AJ appears to have a much tougher game and a consistent competitive mindset that came and went with mcdgrady.

TMac is probably more underrated than overrated.
 
Hyper-specific player comparisons are counterproductive to begin with, but the Dybala-TMac comparison isn't based on TMac's injury history lol.
