Who Are the New Badgers' NBA Player Comparisons?

To get a better feel for the Badger's newest members, giving them an NBA comparison seems like a fun way to learn their skills and talents. Now, I'm not saying our guys will become NBA All-Stars (not saying they won't either), but without further ado, here are NBA comps for all three of Wisconsin's transfers.

G Camren Hunter

Pro Comparison: Donovan Mitchell

New transfer Camren Hunter is a good finisher at the rim and a great pick and roll player as well. Besides both measuring 6'3" and 210 pounds, based on those basketball traits, Donovan Mitchell is the first NBA player that comes to mind. Mitchell was third to only Luka Doncic and Damian Lillard in points scored off of pick and rolls. He also was a very good finisher at the rim, with a higher shooting percentage within five feet than stars like Stephen Curry or Kyrie Irving.

F Xavier Amos

Pro Comparison: Michael Porter Jr.

Amos is a long and athletic stretch four who can catch and shoot as well as put the ball on the floor and get to the rim. Michael Porter Jr. is a good match at the NBA level. As one of the better catch and shoot bigs in the league, his length also makes him a good switch defender. If you're not convinced, just take a look at Porter Jr.'s career NBA stats compared to Amos' last season:

G/F John Tonje

Pro Comparison: Tobias Harris

Tonje is a big-bodied wing with sneaky athleticism who can score at every level. Both physically and in play style, Tobias Harris is a close comparison. Each can score from anywhere, and can create their own shots when needed. For Harris' NBA career he shot 47.8% from the floor, 36.8% from three and 83.5% from the stripe. Tonje's college career is eerily similar at 45.3%, 37.1% and 81.5%
