I know this will seem idiotic, but I actually prefer Brunson.
Ball: 89.6 percentile
Brunson: 93.5 percentile
Agree that Ball isn´t a great pull up shooter or finisher at the rim but his passing is on another level compared to Brunson or Richardson. Not to mention that Ball would be a big upgrade as a 3&D off ball guard as well. As of now he is shooting 39.7% from 3 on 7.7 attempts. That´s slightly better than THJ.
The great thing is that it wouldn´t be a one or the other situation. Ball is 6´6 and could play next to Brunson as well. 3&D guard next to Luka. Main ballhandler when Luka is on the bench. I am not the biggest fan of Brunson the decision maker and PG. I am a big fan of Brunson the scorer. I think a player like Lonzo that distributes the ball would be a good fit next to him. Certainly better than Burke (another score first waterbug guard).
