Heavy transition creation and interior finishing kept his head above water despite a barrage of missed perimeter looks. His +5.8 defensive rating highlights his versatility in switching across multiple positions. The poor outside shooting capped his ceiling, but his playmaking out of the short roll salvaged his overall rating.

Suffered a significant negative impact (-5.8) because his utter lack of offensive volume allowed the defense to trap his teammates. While his point-of-attack defense was stellar (+8.4), his refusal to look at the basket stalled the half-court offense. He essentially operated as a zero-gravity decoy on the offensive end.

An ill-advised obsession with perimeter jumpers dragged his overall impact into the negative. He provided excellent rim protection and generated second-chance opportunities, but gave those gains right back with empty offensive possessions from beyond the arc. Abandoning his interior strengths for outside shots proved costly.

Lethal perimeter shot-making and deep drop-coverage exploitation fueled a highly productive offensive shift. He punished under-screens with immediate pull-up triples, forcing the defense into constant rotation. Surprisingly engaged defensive tracking (+2.1) ensured he didn't bleed points on the other end.

Extreme passivity on offense resulted in a severe -9.5 impact crater. He floated on the perimeter without pressuring the rim or drawing defensive attention, effectively forcing his team to play four-on-five. The lack of assertiveness completely negated his passable defensive metrics.

Stagnant offensive decision-making and forced drives caused a sharp drop from his recent scoring tear. Even though he provided solid perimeter resistance (+5.2 defense), his inability to finish in traffic resulted in empty possessions. The offense bogged down whenever he tried to initiate isolation sets.

Despite solid point-of-attack defense (+3.5), an inability to generate rim pressure capped his overall effectiveness (-4.2). He settled for contested perimeter looks rather than attacking closeouts, stalling the offensive flow during his minutes. The lack of downhill aggression allowed the defense to rest.

Failed to establish any physical presence in the paint during a highly ineffective rotation stint. He was easily pushed off his spots, leading to a negative overall impact (-4.1) despite not actively hurting the team with turnovers. The game simply moved too fast for him to leave a footprint.

A complete lack of field goal attempts highlights a stint where he was entirely bypassed in the offensive flow. Drawing fouls in the paint salvaged his scoring, but his negative defensive rating (-0.3) showed he struggled with defensive rotations. He was mostly a spectator during his brief rotational minutes.

A disastrous micro-stint where he immediately surrendered defensive leverage and bricked his only look. Racking up a -7.6 impact in under three minutes requires a rapid succession of blown assignments and negative plays. He was quickly pulled after failing to execute the defensive scheme.
