Here’s Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups on where Toumani Camara can get to defensively after Thursday’s 119-90 home win vs. the Orlando Magic (7 points/5 rebounds/2 assists/2 blocks/3-4 FG/1-2 FT/+25 +/-).
(via Portland Trail Blazers):
“I think he can keep climbing. He’s still new to this. I kept moving him around today in the game, especially having no Jerami [Grant]. I put him on Paolo [Banchero], then Franz [Wagner]. Franz started going, I put him in press. I put him everywhere. Went small. I just put him everywhere. His ceiling, we don’t know what it could be defensively. He wants to be the best in the world, he really does. He took two charges in the first half, didn’t get either one of them. And I’m on these refs all the time saying, ‘He’s the best in the league. He’s the best, he really is. He leads the league at it.’ So we don’t know what his level could stop at, but we won’t know, because he will continue to get better and better and better.”
