Denver Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, a two-time champion, shifts his focus to the defensive end this season, expressing a clear goal of attaining either Defensive Player of the Year or a spot on the All-Defensive First Team.

Caldwell-Pope, determined and vocal about his aspirations, looks to make a significant impact on the defensive side of the floor.

“I got one goal, man, either Defensive Player of the Year or first-team. I’m going to continue to push that envelope,” Kentavious Caldwell-Pope said, per Vinny Benedetto.
