Ime Udoka said teams try to involve Alperen Sengun in pick and roll. Kevin Durant yelled at him to “play some defense.” The broadcast claimed he was getting “destroyed” on cross matches. That’s how narratives are built in today’s NBA. But when you actually log every possession from the Hornets, Pacers and Thunder games, the story looks very different. We break down the KD clip, the so-called cross match domination, and what “targeting” really means when you’re the center in drop coverage. Then we look at the numbers. Sengun is directly creating about 37 points per game between his scoring and assists. If you’re going to label someone a liability, the tape and the math better back it up. Let’s dig in.
