(via Atlanta Hawks):

“Dyson was, in my opinion, Defensive Player of the Year and Most Improved. So, I’m glad he got the recognition he deserved last year. It was great seeing him break out. It was amazing to see. So, I’m excited to get back on the court with him and just continue to disrupt things on defense with him.”
