This man has never been this wide open, and he was an elite shooter last year in Washington.

He’s taken 38 shots and is 60% from 2 and 62% from 3.

Everyone is talking about the Giannis/Dame PnR, but I believe the Tatum/Porzingis PnR is going to be as deadly because of their size and shooting combination.

    Wtf you clearly didn’t watch him in Dallas. I remember seeing plenty of stats detailing number of drives he deterred while he was here. His rim protection is fine

      He’s definitely been inconsistent at times defensively, but that’s pretty clearly due to injury. I feel like we have a pretty good picture of who he is on that end— an excellent rim protector with some vulnerabilities due to his size and frame, who mostly plays drop but isn’t completely helpless in other coverages. We’re well-equipped to compensate for his weaknesses, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he looks even better here than he did in Washington defensively (health willing, of course)
