Denver Nuggets: A look at Gary Harris’ advanced defensive stats

If you do not have faith in the Denver Nuggets’ starting two guard, then go ahead and take a look a the numbers.

Per NBA.com, Harris had a defensive rating of 107.5 last season to go along with a steal average of 1.8 per game. It is a travesty he did not get selected to either of the All NBA Defensive Teams. Gary also possessed a defensive rebounding percentage of 6.8%.

However, where Gary Harris excels is getting into the passing lanes to disrupt passes. When the Denver Nuggets won, Harris averaged 1.9 steals per game.
