I know some will say it's Cade but he's been really inefficient this year with 21ppg in 20 shots on 49 TS. Ausar elevated the pistons defense this year they went from 27th to 19th. If you watch the games you can tell he's already one of the top defenders in the game being a pest on the court every night along with 2bpg and 1spg. Not to mention this guy is only 6'7 and a beast on the boards averaging 10ppg whilst providing decent playmaking on 4apg. He's a jumpshot away from being a star.
