• Why attacking ‘weaker’ NBA defenders on switches may not be a good strategy

Photo by Adam Hagy/NBAE via Getty Images Targeting players perceived as being bad on defense through switches has become an NBA strategy staple, but the data suggests that — at least in most cases — this may be a bad strategy. At times, Luka Doncic is a liability on the defensive end. When he’s guarding away from the ball, he’s known to lose focus and surrender open shots. He often takes h...2024
