jerrymeyer247 Jeremy Meyer@FatCat1982 Anthony Davis is definitely better outside shooter than Nerlens Noel and that does mean a whole lot in NBA.

Something to note when comparing Nerlens Noel to Anthony Davis- look at what each of them was playing with.

@Jugg40 Not sure. But Dakari Johnson isn't like DeMarcus Cousins, and Marcus Lee is nothing like Nerlens Noel.

Bio
Travel Team: BABC
May 2011: Noel is a very long player that knows how to use his height to his advantage. This 2013 prospect was one of the top performers at the Nike EYBL in Los Angeles, demonstrating his ability to score around the basket while also blocking and disrupting shots on the defensive end of the floor. He plays tall and wide, but could benefit from added strength in his lower body to truly seal defenders on the low block.
February 2012: Noel has reclassified as a 2012 prospect.
