When it comes to on-ball perimeter defenders, there are very few in NBA history who were at the level of Metta World Peace.
By the time World Peace joined the Los Angeles Lakers, he was beginning the downside of his career, but he made NBA All-Defensive Team four times and was named 2004 NBA Defensive Player of the Year — one of only three perimeter players to win the award over the last 25 seasons.
While with the Lakers, World Peace played a huge role in the team winning the 2010 NBA Finals, playing his usual hard-nosed defense while also coming up with timely offensive plays.
