Only subpar/undersized defenders. Any good defender locks him up fairly easily. Especially if they are aggressive or physical

Friendly reminder that folks love to talk about CJ's turnovers, I've really never seen anyone complain about BI's turnovers and yet CJ has been better at taking care of the ball than BI every single season he's been with us.

Yeah but this all depends on how much CJ handles the ball compared to BI, how many assists CJ generates compared to BI and frankly both plainly struggle bringing the ball up court when pressured early.

Friendly reminder that Zion turns the ball over at a higher rate than both of them, while also having a lower ast/to ratio compared to them as well.
If we want to talk about turnovers, it starts with Zion.

Players who played at least 50 games and had a usage% higher than 25 in 2024, there were 62 such players that fit that criteria.
Here's the list of players that had a higher TO% than Zion in that category:
Wemby
Cade
Paolo
Trae
Lebron
KD
KAT
Scoot
Jordan Clarkson

KD and KAT are suprises to me there. Lebron and Trae have significantly higher Ast/TO ratio's to Zion. The others are young players you'd expect to turn it over.
