Will he ever be a Kawhi,Lebron and etc.. No,but he plays good enough defense especially when he's in the ball...
People,who say Sexton is bad at defense says it because it's the popular thing to say. Sexton holds his own especially against taller guards. A lot of fans and local media act like he gets completely annhilated on defense.
Does he makes mistakes...yes
Does he makes bad decisions on defense...yes
Does he needs to improve...yes
But,lets not act like he gets completely annhilated by taller guards all the time....
We don't need Sexton and Garland too be lockdown defenders. We need them to be at least average or above average.
If,anything we need a lockdown player at the power forward position. One that can stay healthy most of the time.
Sexton struggles with taller guards and forwards. If he was paired with a tall pg, then the issue is solved, he has decent on ball defense and he gives effort. I dont hate Sexton, but he and Garland together create a possible issue, you need perfect roster construction to avoid the issue.
Plus i am fearful of him wanting the max, he is worth allot, but i dont think Sexton is a max player.
