    Come on bro lol. Booker doesn’t even remotely compare to Luka.

      Idk Luka is probably like the 4th or 5th best player in the league and Booker is probably 8th or 9th best

      It’s still Luka overall yes but I do think that this comment section is somewhat overestimating the gap

        For real…I believe Luka is better but some people here have literally no respect for what Booker is and what he’s done…

      I think Luka is better, and more importantly he’s younger, so he’s the obvious answer to this question. But if we’re just talking right now, saying they don’t “remotely compare” is stupid.

      I’d argue that Booker is easier to build around because he could fit into every team in the league. He’s a better defender than Luka and he’s a FAR better off-ball player than Luka.

      (Again, yes I agree Luka is better but they’re absolutely “comparable”, they’re both top 10 players)

      Ok - not “remotely compare” is a bit harsh on Booker…wasn’t Booker 36PPG at 70% TS in the playoffs last year? Luka’s playoff runs are legendary but Booker has shined as well
