i think larry johnson is a good comparable... i can't recall Barkley being quite as athletic.
should be interesting... i think he's a great player, but being great in the NBA requires a lot of growth in his game; as athletic as he is, i don't think he's going to have open lanes to the rim anymore.
Morant should be interesting... a lot of small school guys become stars in the NBA... Curry, Kawhi, Lillard are all small school guys...
