-Really loved Carpenter’s play in a comeback win over a super scrappy Team Iverson group, especially at the defensive end of the floor. Carpenter’s motor really stood out throughout the matchup as a physical wing defender that could chase guards around screens, switch onto bigs effectively and use his IQ to get around the seal for steals and deflections, and serve as a disruptive free safety off the ball adept at producing deflections. His positioning at the defensive end of the floor to force misses on perimeter jumpers or fade-away’s without fouling has really improved to keep him on the floor for longer stretches of time. His ability to trace the ball with his hands effectively really negated his matchup’s ability to pass the ball as he was switched onto different hot scorers to slow down their rhythm throughout the matchup.
