A pit-bull point-of-attack defender who played all 82 games and guards in the 94th percentile, picking pockets and chasing the ball. He's a willing playmaker (3.6 assists) who's even become a passable 37.4% three-point shooter, but he's a turnover-prone, low-usage threat offensively. You play him to take the other team's best guard out of the game.
