Sengun is about to go supernova on the league.
How very Steven Adams of him.
The selflessness ππΌ
Sengun’s understanding of how to box out has improved so much. Two seasons ago he didn’t have the defensive IQ to box out even just passibly. He has put in a lot of work since coming in, conditioning and improving his defense. Him boxing out appropriately is way more impressive to me than him getting a triple double. Because we know he can stuff a stat box if he plays for stats.
