“My pick for DPOY last year was Rudy Gobert, and he just missed out. Now that Gordon Hayward is gone he is the sole leader of the Utah Jazz, and they will need him to post career numbers. Draymond Green and Kawhi Leonard won’t be able to keep up their defensive effort game in game out, and Gobert will separate himself from the crowd.” –Sam Casey

“This is the year the ‘Stifle Tower’ gets rewarded for his immaculate work in the paint. With four seasons under his belt, the 25 year-old Frenchman is only getting better at controlling the game from the interior.” –Emmanuel Dixon
