PJ Tucker was the Philadelphia Sixers’ major rookie last offseason. And the impact of the former NBA champion is clearly felt in defense. He is sent on a mission every evening on the best opposing attackers. This is almost his only task to perform on the pitch. Indeed, he participates very little, if at all in attack.
The veteran has already finished 19 matches without scoring a single point this season. That’s a lot for a starter. But the most interesting is the record of the Sixers on these meetings. They have won 15 of the 19 meetings in question. Maybe a sign that somewhere it works when Tucker does nothing but defend.
PJ Tucker is shooting 3.5 points and 39 percent from behind the arc this season.
