Holmgren Names Thunder's Wallace as NBA's Best Defender

Speaking with Serge Ibaka on the 'How Hungry Are You?' show, Holmgren praised Wallace's ability to defend both on and off ball, hound opponents across the court, and force misses. Wallace, who entered the NBA in the same draft class as Wembanyama, was selected 10th overall but wasn't among the Defensive Player of the Year contenders, which ultimately went to Wembanyama. toffler.lol

Meanwhile, Holmgren has received strong defensive recognition, with teammate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander calling him the anchor of the Thunder, who he believes are the best defensive team in the league.
