- [Greg Logan] Here is my Defensive Player of the Year ballot. Kia Defensive Player of the Year Drummond, Andre (CLE) Whiteside, Hassan (POR) Antetokounmpo, Giannis (MIL) Two-time winner Rudy Gobert's numbers of rebounds & blocks don't match Drummond & Whiteside. Giannis is shutdown defender. https://twitter.com/GregLogan1/status/1292327620252708865 17 comments nba
