Storyline to follow: Roby’s D

The two most impressive displays from Dallas Mavericks second round draft choice Isaiah Roby so far have been his ball handling and defensive chops. Neither should come as a surprise as Roby was touted as doing both well.

Through two games, he averages 12.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.5 steals, and 2.0 blocks in 26.5 minutes per game. Roby is also an outstanding positive 39 in the plus/minus category. The 21-year-old produced this highlight block against the Rockets.

Early returns from Roby have been strong. Mavs fans should be excited for what he has in store against the Kings.
