Top 15 Playmakers in the 2019 NBA Draft & their Comparisons

#8 Atlanta Hawks – Cameron Reddish
Playmaker Comparison: Carmelo Anthony

Melo has been getting a bad rap on social media the past year or so, but people are quick to forget that Carmelo Anthony was one of the best scorers of his generation and a future hall of famer.

Cam is comfortable hitting DEEP 3s and finishing in the paint, similarly to Carmelo. Many feel Reddish had a disappointing freshman year at Duke, but it’s hard to stand out and take control of a team with Zion and RJ Barrett sharing the spotlight.

Now that the Hawks have their star PG Trae Young, Cam Reddish is the perfect compliment to his game; an offensive weapon that can use his physicality and skills as a Playmaker, an additional scoring option for Trae to set up.
