All-NBA2× All-StarDefensive Player of the Year2× All-DefensiveRookie of the Year2025-26: MVP finalist

A generational two-way force and the centerpiece of the franchise, even on a partial 64-game sample after a blood clot cost him time. He finished top-3 in MVP voting and won the wing-of-the-roster trifecta — DPOY runner-up, All-NBA First Team, All-Defense First Team — while posting 25.0 points, 11.5 boards, and 3.1 blocks on 62.6% true shooting. A 99th-percentile rebounder and a perfect 100 rim-protection grade who also stretches the floor: there's no weakness here.

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.
