Marvin Williams is labeled as a stretch four or an undersized big man but the stats back up that he has become a great interior defender. The Charlotte Hornets were the 12th best shot blocking team in the NBA last season even without a typical rim protector. Marvin was their most consistent interior defender.
Charlotte averaged 5.3 blocks per game as a team and Williams was the only player to average a single block a game. The starting power forward finished the season with 1.0 blocks per game in 2015-16. After years of being an under-achieving interior defender, Marvin averaged a career high in blocks and led the Hornets in that category.
