List of players who spent the most time matched up on Scoring Ball-handlers last season. Just outside this list of 15, there are other guys like Derrick White, Jrue Holiday, Jalen Brown, Keon Ellis, Terance Mann, etc.
It strikes me that none of these guys share a physical/athletic profile with PJW. Maybe only Taurean Prince and Jeremy Sochan, to some degree? This is not a knock on PJW at all, he has done great for the Mavs and I hope to see him work harder in the gym to continue improving.
I'm just sharing this to temper any expectations or desires to see PJW matched up with quick, primary ball-handlers for the sole purpose of accommodating Kyrie/Klay/Luka lineups.
