Chet got some heavy respect from Cavs head coach Kenny Atkinson after the game today.

Chet is the current favorite for DPOY, and has been statistically one of the best rim protectors in the league this season.

He is currently holding opponents within the paint to 48.3% DFG% allowed. For reference, Victor Wembanyama is at 56.1% on identical attempts defended per game.

If Chet keeps this up, he will be on his way to his first all star, DPOY, and potentially all NBA appearance while posting career bests in points, rebounds, and FG%.

  1. Wemby won the December games. (He said he’s built for December moments lol). That’s all he has over Chet.

  2. I’ve said this for a while. Wemby has freak athleticism and is more of a highlight reel defender.
    Chet is a textbook rim protector. It’s not flashy it’s just solid

  3. Also said the reason Mitchell couldn’t do anything was because ‘Lu Dort is one of the best defenders in the league’

  4. Wemby can only miss 3 more games to be eligible for DPOY. If he doesn’t meet the mark I don’t see how Chet doesn’t win it
