Grant Williams and P.J. Tucker are in an unspoken battle for glue guy supremacy

When Grant Williams entered the league in 2019, experts viewed him as an intelligent, physical, versatile player with a unique skill set.

There were two main problems, though: his lack of size and his lack of range. When the 6-foot-5 forward started his career 0-for-25 from 3-point territory, it was fair to question whether he would last long in the NBA.

Fast forward three years and Williams is now a sharpshooter and elite defender on one of the best teams in the NBA. Last round, he kept Giannis Antetokounmpo in check better than just about anyone did all season.
