You know this honestly doesn't surprise me. I love DFS's heart, energy, and attitude and am very grateful he is on the team....BUT I do think he is a vastly overrated defender. Similar to Marion for a number of years.
Agree. DFS outstanding ability is his offensive rebounding. Nearly 2 OREBs per game for a 6`7 wing is impressive.
He is the only athletic wing defender on the roster. Making him the only option against players like LeBron or Kawhi by default. A wing sized 3&D player remains among the biggest needs.
