Like an even taller Durant. Comparable skillsets for their ages, imo, although I don't recall KD having quite that "low" of a handle.

Just taller.

Wemby must live in the gym to develop that much skill instead of taking the easy route and playing to his height. Sky's the limit if he stays healthy.

Eh. He doesn't have Durant's ball skills or release but he doesn't have to. I think he's a smarter defender. 

I just wonder how long his frame will last. I think Mark Eaton is the only guy that big to play over 800 games and he didn't do much but sit his ass in the paint. Chet has already missed a full season. Porzingis has never been able to consistently stay on the floor. 

Gobert has had a relatively good track record health-wise - I think you hope that Wemby has whatever genes Rudy has.
