All-Defensive

Oklahoma City's designated stopper, built like a safety and handed the opponent's toughest perimeter scorer every night. The offense is strictly complementary — corner threes and the occasional bully drive — but his physical, ball-hawking defense is why he closes games for a contender.

Seasons from Basketball-Reference (2023-24 → 2025-26). Production is box plus-minus, a per-possession measure. Value is VORP-based wins, so it also counts games played. Contract value is what each season’s play would fetch on the open market. The dotted 2026-27 point is a forecast: his established level, a year older, assuming a normal season.
