Bam Adebayo vs the DPOY ladder
Current DPOY Ladder (Bovada):
-
Rudy Gobert +550
-
Victor Wembanyama +750
-
Evan Mobley +800
-
Jaren Jackson Jr. +800
-
Anthony Davis +1000
The point of this post is to illustrate that not only is Bam Adebayo being overlooked in DPOY yet again — but also that he is completely cooking these elite defenders when playing them head to head.
Why would you look at Bams offensive stats as a justification for him being DPOY at all? DOPY isn’t about what Bam can do against opponents on offense it’s about how impactful the player is on defense vs the whole team.
