To add, I've never felt while watching that effort was ever the problem defensively with Sexton. It's all technique/scheme based. College defense is... easy, to say the least. It's schematically a nightmare for a PG in the NBA.
Yeah, I tend to trust in guys who are hard workers, which Sexton clearly is, to figure shit out eventually. We've already seen the strides he's made with his outside shot over the course of the season.
Defense is usually about effort long-term, and I think the effort will always be there with Sexton. He just needs everything to click, which will hopefully happen next year after he has another full NBA offseason.
