This is why I think SGA is better than Luka and Steph rn

Defense is half of basketball

Curry is a bit overstepping it. But better than Luka is not even a crazy take rn. Luka D riders gonna downvote you to hell tho.

I heard this take after every single Trae v Luka comparison for the past 5 years. Trae is a black hole on defense whereas Luka is neutral at worst.

Now Trae is 57th percentile DEPM while Luka is 11th percentile.

Shai on the other hand is 96th and one of the best guard defenders in the league.
