Now, time will tell if he ever reaches Tatum's level as a top 5-7 player in the league but he was a better prospect than Tatum entering the league. I think he is at least 3-4 years ahead of Tatum as a passer. Tatum probably had a more consistent shot. I do hope Flagg doesn't fall in love with the three as Tatum can. I can just picture Flagg with a spread floor getting into the lane and being deadly similar to how Tatum could do as his best.
That's a pretty good comp, too.
I feel like he's already showing that he'll be better with the ball in his hands (as a secondary creator type) than Tatum, but Tatum is a pretty damn polished 1-on-1 scorer. If Flagg can get there, the other things he brings to the table should make him clearly superior to Tatum overall, I'd wager.
