Indiana Basketball: Three NBA comparisons for Romeo Langford
By Alec Lasley
Former Indiana basketball guard Romeo Langford enters draft week with still a lot of questions about his game. We take a look at three NBA comparisons for him.
Romeo Langford entered the Indiana basketball program as someone who was asked to bring the program back to national relevance and in some ways he did.
After an up-and-down freshman season in Bloomington, Langford declared for the NBA Draft, as expected, but many executives and scouts had more questions than answers about his game and how it would translate.
A couple of injuries contributed to the question marks, and he will have to prove that once he plays his first games for his new team.
But who exactly emulates Langford’s game at the next level? There are a couple.
We break down exactly who the smooth wing could turn into in the NBA, giving you the best case, the worst case and then someone who seems the most likely.
All of these options have similarities but also differences in how they play, and while nobody has the exact same game as someone else, these three players have styles of play and careers that could end up being Langford’s.
Here we go.
