Not saying they are exactly the same. But he's more similar than anyone else to come out the draft.
Kid is gonna be really fricking good.
22 shots ALL SEASON that weren't a layup or 3 pointer. Elite basketball IQ

Monk would be closer to Curry.
Ball's shot gives me diarrhea.

He will not be near about as good as people are saying. Magic mentioned retiring his jersey in the rafters. No way does that happen.

considering they're literally nothing alike, no

If steph had a release point as slow and as ugly as Balls, he would get blocked every play

Steps Curry is wayyyy more handsome.

I'll help him out; A pretty big number is 66% eFG%, good for 9th in the NCAA.
People are in love with all of that red on Fox's chart though.
I don't get the Steph comparison from the OP by the way.
If his shot form becomes a problem I'll say I was wrong, but Fox has an typical shot form and his won't go in. That's a real problem and not enough people are concerned about it.

Ball is nothing like Curry. I have no idea where op came up with this comparison. Jason Kidd is the closest comparison to Ball.
Ball can be very good. Nobody knows how good. That is up to how hard Ball works. Every great player had to work hard at improving. The busts are the ones who didn't want to work at improving.

Ball is already a better shooter than Kidd ever was. Kidd had way more foot speed and better hands. They aren't really alike at all

It's considered his biggest weakness, but he shot better down the final stretch of the season.
He shot 74% from the line though which is usually a decent translator to future shooting ability.

Ball's release is as quick as Klay Thompson and Ball is bigger than most pgs

Seems to me like Ball has no midrange game.

This is a freaking absurd sidewalk fan take.
Jason Kidd is top 5 ALL TIME in 3 pointers made when he retired in 2013
Ball hasn't made any. Go to sleep
3 pt made career
