All-Star2× All-Defensive

A 38-year-old stretch-five and rim-protection institution. No 2025-26 numbers are listed to grade, but the profile is well-established: a back-line anchor who walls off the paint and spaces the floor with a reliable corner three. His age makes the team option a year-to-year proposition.
