Agreed. His defense has been invaluable. I am hoping to see more blocks as he gets more comfortable in the NBA game, but that is a small request from an otherwise happy fan.
I still think Festus has a ways to go on the defensive end. Being built like a brick house helps when guys try to post up on him, but his footwork still leaves something to be desired. This should come in time with experience, but I do like what he's brought to the team so far. I have been pretty impressed by the minutes he's received. What I think I like the most is that his offensive game is better than I imagined. Love his motor too.
