re: Jaxson Hayes Interview in The Athletic

He's not Mobley or Ayton either, and can't anchor a Defense now. I think he can contribute, adding size to perimeter defense by default, or more, some particular need of off-ball rim protection. There may be more to the issue but available players that can help the team on court make sense to play and he's racking up DNPs. He's had a tough entry in the league for sure.
