When we signed Grant, I thought he would be able to play some backup center minutes. He defends the bigger bulky guys alright. His perimeter defense has been disappointing though. How Grant is moving on the perimeter now, KD would just torch him anyway.It hasn’t been the case with all matchups, but the specific you you named, Durant, GWill has been pretty great against in the recent past, going back to last year’s playoffs and in our Suns games this year.
He is not playing well regardless, but if we could pair him with a 6'9 guy who can stretch the floor, block some shots and rebound, Grant at center for moments is not terrible. I just not sure we have that player currently.
