But hes not good. Its not like Luke and Kobe weren't trying to get him to play defense. Hes just not an athletic guard, thats his biggest weakness, and you cant teach athleticism. Its gonna be fun too watch on offense with him and Curry, but it won't be pretty on defense.
He has a 6'10 wingspan. Plenty of potential there to become at least adequate defensively.
Ok
You don't need elite athleticism to be a solid defender. Klay Thompson is not an athletic freak by any means. Dude can barely dunk. Same with Draymond. Neither are athletic freaks.
Everyone in the NBA is an athletic freak. To be that big and agile enough to play basketball is freaky. Klay is 6′ 7″
