VIDEO: Aaron Gordon Looks a Lot Like Aaron Judge in High School Basketball Mixtape
Due to his incredible in game jams and amazing dunk contest throw-downs, Aaron Gordon has become known as one of the best high-flyers in the NBA today. Gordon's athleticism is incredibly rare, even in a league full of some of the most athletic people in the world. As much as he stands out now, just imagine how dominant Gordon was in high school. And before you ask, yes he is Aaron Judge's doppelganger.

The Judge-lookalike was amazing in his junior year, averaging 22.9 PPG, 12.8 RPG, 2.6 APG and 2.3 BPG. However, he turned it on even more as a senior, as he averaged a mind-numbing 21.6 PPG, 15.7 RPG and 3.3 BPG and won the McDonald's All-American Game MVP that year.

What a vicious dunk. I'm glad I wasn't on the receiving end of that play.
Judge, for all we know, was also dominant on the hardwood. However, we're hard-pressed to believe he ever humiliated a defender like Gordon has. Opposing pitchers, on the other hand...
