i didn't get to see him in SL but i have no doubt his defense is exemplery, he has very good basketball IQ and is great at defending the rim especially against smaller players going to the basket. He does need to at least be a factor on offense to earn minutes and his lack of physical strength make him not as good at defending the bigs. The first issue can be solved if he improves but also because he would be just the 4th or 5th option most of the time and the 2nd issue would take him getting stronger which could also help his offensive production
