Did he though or was he just making an overall comparison based on size? Their games don't align whatsoever so I highly doubt he was making a side by side comparison.
Tyrese Hunter Entering the Transfer Portal - NIL Speculation

That comparison doesn’t make sense either. Steph Curry is 6’2”. Tyrese is listed at 6 ft. They are not the same size.
I think when describing undersized guards it's fair to put 6'2" into that category.
Big difference. 6 ft. Is severely undersized. 10 players in the whole league. 31 players are 6 ft. 1 inch. Even an inch makes a difference. Only 9 players under 6 ft.
Not saying it doesn't make a difference I'm just saying if you'd ask to name undersized guards in the NBA right now I'd certainly put players that are 6'2" into that category. From there you can dive into the actual heights.
OK split the difference. Did any guy I mention fit into your 6-1 range?
It's not like I googled heights and weights of guys, it was just players I've seen recently that came off the top of my head, that are similar size wise.
Some of you all are taking that way too serious.
Again everyone, I was strictly just talking about size when these names came to mind as not big guards:
The Athletic writer (Brian Hamilton) seems to think Tyrese only plays one year at TX and is then "gone."
No mention of NIL compensation.
No mention of NIL compensation.
Really? 2 inches is a difference maker? How about physical characteristics like quickness, leaping ability, wingspan, etc.
If Tyrese doesn't make the NBA, it isn't going to be because of his height. It's because of his shooting, ball handling or assist/turnover.
Those things as well. Height is a difference maker In basketball. 10 players in the NBA are 6 foot. 9 players are under 6 foot in the NBA.
:Height can be a difference maker- but not at PG. Is Monte a liability at 6'2".
How many PG's are there in the NBA? Maybe 90 (tops). What % of those 90 PG's are under 6'3" or under?
Unless Tyrese is looking to post guys up- no worries. He is an elite athlete.
Oh yeah! Jimmy's been watching you. You're just Jimmy's type.
Listening to game 7 of the East Finals on the radio and all I could think about was that Seinfeld episode whenever the announcers said anything about Jimmy Butler. Jimmy taking it to the hole. Jimmy hitting his free throws.
Probably going to have to wait for Pollard to break the news on the dollar amount, just as he did with TH having an agent.
Honestly when I was watching that game I was wondering if Miami would even make the playoffs without Butler.
