Overall Comparison:

It’s a battle between Edwards and LaMelo Ball as to who is the most talented player in the draft but Edwards physically, his frame and athleticism may be the difference. He has an nba body and will be among the better athletes as soon as he steps on the floor. Add in his skill set and you can understand why he has franchise star potential. To me he’s a combo of David Thompson and Dwyane Wade. He has Wades build, size, playmaking and David Thompson’s shooting ability along with both of their elite athleticism. He’s truly a freak. If he makes up his mind to be committed to mastering the details of the game

On both ends, like a Kobe Bryant, it’ll be no stopping him.
