Yeah Green looks special. I'd never watched a live game of his so I thought he was a stiff linear athlete and that's not the case at all. He was actually sliding on defense so the LaVine comp undersells him as a 2way player. My other concern was his low release but it looks like he's raised it enough to where it's a non-issue. He just has that it-factor as a scorer and is so explosive.
I'll disagree about no-brainer #1. I see it more as 1a/1b and Cunningham is the 1a. He's so polished and skilled and you don't need to be an elite athlete at that size to dominate. Green may become the better scorer but Cunningham plays really hard for a superstar and will be a really solid defender. He can impact winning in so many ways he's just more reliant on ball-screens than Green to get his offense. Which is fine...Luka and Middleton are similar. Pick and roll and stepback jumpers are powerful tools for bigger wings who lack explosion.
