We explore the striking similarities between Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Joel Embiid, comparing their MVP-caliber stats, playing styles, and how their careers might follow parallel paths.
• SGA's current stats (33/5/6 on 52/37/90 shooting) mirror Embiid's MVP season numbers (33/10/4 on 55/33/86 shooting)
• Both players excel at drawing fouls, utilizing their physical advantages, and dominating in isolation
• Despite different body types, both demonstrate elite scoring and defensive capabilities
• Playoff success remains the ultimate measuring stick for both players' legacies
• The comparison raises questions about whether SGA will eventually face the same criticism as Embiid despite his talents
• Like Embiid, SGA must translate regular season dominance to playoff victories to solidify his reputation
