Does Zion have more of LBJ type game than we realized?

Everyone knows there arent any perfect comparisons for Zion. We have never seen a player quite like him. Al mentions Draymond as a partial comparison...Zion appears to have the ability to handle and distribute the ball. Dray doesnt really score though. I dont know that Zion will ever handle the ball as much as LBJ, but he seems to have good vision and decision making as a teen. He obviously is a better scorer than Dray. Will Zion end up looking more like LBJ than most of us realized?
It is unlikely that Zion has the ceiling of LBJ when regarding point guard type skills. Are there any areas in which his ceiling could surpass LBJ?

Its been really well known that he is an excellent handler, passer for his position, and has a high basketball IQ.
I'm not sure he will be a true Point Forward like Lebron but he can do a lot of things.

If your looking for an area where he can pass everyone including LBJ I would say it’s his strength. Even without his athleticism he could play ball like a grown man plays with his kids.

I agree with both of you. We knew he was good for his position but he looks like he has a higher ceiling for passing and running the O than I realized. Maybe it was my ignorance.
His strength and size is freakish. I was surprised they didnt call him for a foul when he skied over Poeltl for the rebound. While it looked like he jumped straight up, his sheer mass bounced poor Poeltl out of the way. Lol

He’s more Giannis than Lebron style of play wise. But yea he has a little Bron on his game. Not that level of play-maker but is very under appreciated as a distributor. Dummies that say all he can do is dunk, hopefully they watched this one. He should’ve had 6+ assists

Huh, LB J wishes he had more of Zion’s game, brah.

Zion is gonna be better than LBJ. Zion is gonna be the most dominant player in this history of this game. Last night just reinforced it.

He’s Larry Johnson with a good back.
