He is close to Shaq. Just the NBA has moved away from the Shaq type of player. In reality, Shaq had the range out to about 6 ft. Couldn't shoot a FT, he was just a physical force. I'd say Kofi is a little more skilled than Shaq, Shaq maybe more agile.
I'd be interested to see what the NBA would think of Shaq if he was coming out of college this year? He couldn't shoot, I think he only attempted 1 three in his career, but he was a physical monster, just like Kofi. Would Shaq get passed over in 2022 as well?
