Scoot Henderson is the next Chris Paul, just 2 inches and 20 lbs difference.
A lot of people say westbrick, or maybe rose. I see a lot of Chris Paul, play style is exactly the same. Hopefully scoot becames a great defender like Paul.
I also don’t see Westbrook. Russ in his prime was more explosive, but not as good of a floor general.

Very different players

Scoot is 6’2.5″ barefoot (6’4 with shoes), CP3 is 5’11.75″ barefoot (6’1 with shoes). So it’s more like a 3 inch difference.

I think Chris Paul mold is closer than the Russ/Ja/Rose comps. Scoot doesn’t have that type of vertical explosiveness but he is a great athlete in the sense of his strength, huge hands, and speed.
I think the best comparison is a better version of John Wall. Bigger, stronger, should be a better shooter.

CP3 will retire ringless though. Scoot won’t.

They both have elite vision and love the pull-up midranges. 3pt shooting always something pointed at to improve on. I like the comp, scoots just much more athletic

Hopefully he doesn’t turn into a flopping, crying baby like CP3.

Scoot is a DAWG, don’t compare him to mister underrated aka big time choker and locker room cancer CP3

He’s the first Scoot Henderson.
Don’t put that on him. He’s scoot, the first.
When was Chris Paul ever that athletic?
