He was at one point one of the best 2-way wings in the league for multiple years up until his injuries. Since then he's still been a solid defender and has started for a championship team not just 2 years ago.
Is he the level of DJJ? No. But he's not a defensive liability where you have to hide him on a slower player because he can't keep up.
I hope your right. Recent evidence suggests otherwise. We are missing a POA defender in the starting/finishing lineup, and I am struggling to Klay be a good fit for that role. Hope I am wrong.
