Not sure if its super impressive, or if its a byproduct of playing with Killian Hayes.

Not shocking, they both play with a lot of energy in that department and are both young legit big guys.

in terms of rebounding % or rebounding per possession they're both almost identically in the 14-18 range. stewart being a little better on the defensive boards and duren a little better on the offensive boards.

If we were healthy enough to play them together I think it could really help out our defense. We'd have rim protection and rebounding both. Stew's been shooting well enough to still space the floor and Duren would be a lob threat. I really like the potential pairing of the two.

Unfortunately, stew is a below league average 3 point shooter. He's getting wide open looks because the opposition just doesn't guard him. That's not spacing the floor. His man is back clogging the paint. He obviously working on that shot, but nobody is respecting it yet.

He’s at 33.3% for the season and 50% in his last 10 games so it would appear he’s improving. But yeah, until it starts pulling his defender out of the paint it doesn’t mean a whole helluva lot in the big picture unless he stays above league average. At that point if they don’t want to guard it, fine. If you don’t want to guard my 3 pt shot and I can make it at 35% while playing good defense on you, let’s do it.
