Eason is the more natural and fluid athlete. Both have the "nasty" that Pop likes to see.
I believe we will see Eason able to switch onto 2s on the perimeter and truly be an interchangeable perimeter 3 whereas Sochan will have trouble until/unless his body transforms a little while he gets stronger. He has a primary 4 with some big ball 3 and small ball 5 body that reminds me of Marvin Williams both with his impact on games when he comes in and the way he is post centric on both offense and defense when he comes in. The one advantage Sochan has is he has shown a clear ability to create and initiate offense for others from the high post and even some facing up against bigger defenders ala Boris Diaw. I would be interested in seeing Diaws measurements against his, honestly. I didn't know he had that and wasn't prepared for that when they started leaning on him to come back in our tourney game.
Eason looks like Scottie Barnes as a athlete when he enters games. You want to put him at the head of your pressure and have him switch on everything and disrupt everything, find gaps to take open shots and crash the glass on offense. He doesn't have Scotties selflessness or ability to create off the bounce for others but Scottie would have been a clear top 2 pick if hebdemonstarted Taris development on his jumper, but athletically, they look like similar athletes and their length and athleticism finds the ball on defense.
Even with the year of age difference, I bank on Eason over Sochan and bank on Eason having a clearer role and more perimeter versatility
