Chris Paul went on record saying that JaVale had athleticism in the “Dwight Howard category.” Is that a fair comparison?
Well, it depends on how you define athleticism. If Dwight Howard’s athleticism makes you think of raw muscular strength, than the comparison is a little weak. However, if Dwight Howard’s athleticism makes you think about how a 7 footer can soar like an eagle and move with the speed, fluidity, and agility of someone much smaller, than yes, he has comparable athleticism.
