Fans of the Boston Celtics have been delighted to see the defensive florescence of backup wing Jordan Walsh this season now that the Arkansas alum has earned some meaningful playing time with the Celtics. Walsh has been like a demon shot out of a cannon on opposing offenses, stifling almost any player on the floor at some point or another when he has free rein on the parquet.

The man behind the “Nik NBA” YouTube channel put together a clip breaking down the best of Walsh on defense in his recent surge into the team’s rotation. Check it out below!
