Elite perimeter defender & playmaker
New Orleans Pelicans
Western · Southwest · proj. 37–45
An elite, switchable wing stopper — 83rd-percentile perimeter defense, 1.6 steals a night, and the length to guard one through four. The offense is purely complementary (8.9 points, a shaky 49% true shooting and 31% from deep this year), but as a low-usage 3-and-D glue piece on a team-friendly deal, he's exactly what a contender wants.
