More on this storyline

Does Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant and his on-court game remind him of his former Bulls and Knicks teammate, Derrick Rose? “I think so,” he said.  “I see it. I see a lot of similarities. They’re definitely hood favorites. It’s cool. I think there’s similarities in their explosiveness. Physically I think D-Rose is a little bit more explosive. There’s definitely differences in their game.” Noah also weighed in on which current NBA players remind him of his style of play during his hey-day. “I don’t think there’s another Joakim,” he said.  “Everybody’s different. You have similarities and certain things. But, maybe Draymond. I would say. Draymond would be the closest. I think he can shoot it a little better. But I think the way he leads, the way he passes the ball, the energy I see that he plays with I think those are all similarities.” -via ScoopB.com / September 6, 2024
