For instance, he’s very versatile and is really good at defending the perimeter. But is someone else better in terms of just overall ability across the court? This is ignoring when players like Lebron are resting while defending.

    Rudy is a borderline all time level rim protector.

    That said, he isn’t even noticeably above average at any other defensive skill unless you count rebounding, where he is around top 5-6 in the league.

    Wemby and AD are both considerably more impactful defensive players, and I’d probably rather have Bam as well.
