27 yrs old Lauri VS 22 yrs old Sengun
But do you think Sengun even with the young age has an argument against Lauri? Or Lauri is so much better?
They are both not great defenders. So, this will probably go offense vs offense.
Lauri average 2 more points (23 to 21)
But based on your eye test,
Who do you think is the better player?
My answer
I am leaning Lauri.
Don’t get me wrong, I think 27 yrs old Sengun might be a significantly better player then 27 yrs old Lauri.
But right now, 22 yrs old Senguh I think is a little bit raw, and need more polishing. Though very good already.
Lauri imo is kinda underrated. But his versatility, shooting, and Mobility is an asset to any contender team if he is 3rd or 4th option. (Like KP is for Celtics)
How about you?
Both are stereotyped as bad defensively because they are both white euro bigs that are good at offense when both are fine on defense.
Last year, Lauri was probably better but right now, like this very second I am willing to bet Sengun has already surpassed Lauri with how much Sengun has improved every single year.
Sengun was genuinely a bad defender. He was bit better last year but it’s nothing about him being a white euro player. This excuse is getting used way too much.
