What NBA player is pretty effective, but has a really clunky game? (alien.top)

Saw another post about the smoothest players in the game. I'm thinking of the opposite of smooth. Players who move or shoot in a way that makes you go, "how did that guy do THAT?".

For higher profile players, it's Lebron (and Zion). He moves awful. Even the way he runs is bad. He jumps awkwardly too (admittedly still very high).

Maybe because it is the overly muscular neck and shoulders that limits the grace of the arms moving. No idea why both Zion and Lebron runs like that though (does it limit injuries running exaggeratedly like that?)
