And why I think this is low key becoming a more valuable role is that there are a LOT of promising offensive engines. We are in the golden age of guards and it feels like talented skeleton key bigs that guard 1-5 with rim protection while offensively being positive like Mobley or Chet are far rarer than a 20 point scoring guard. As offensive talent booms the difference between the good teams and champions might be who has access to these unicorns that can play in a pace and space offense well while locking up on defense.
When looking for a costar it feels like THE most valuable archetype is a defensive number one and offensive number two, and it might be worthwhile for teams to more actively hunt for defensive talent to pair with their offensive superstars rather than always mortgaging the franchise on offensive duos.
