He’s a staunch defender, good both on the wing and in the post and a fan favorite. He’s Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, more affectionately known as The Hyphen.
Since the Brooklyn Nets drafted him in 2015, Hollis-Jefferson has been an integral part of the Nets’ culture. So much so, in fact, that he modeled pieces from Brooklyn COOL, a collective of designer clothing.
But as important as The Hyphen is to the chemistry of the team, he is also a very important asset to have. Two-way wing players have never been more valuable in the NBA. Just ask the New Orleans Pelicans, whose lack of wings severely limited the team in the second half of last season.
