ORLANDO – If Orlando coach Jamahl Mosley didn't know Jalen Suggs played football in high school, he got his first glimpse of it at Summer League in August.
Instead of trying to maneuver around screens on defense, Suggs instead wanted to plow over whoever was in his way.
"He was not trying to duck through any screen," Mosley said. "Screen was set, he was trying to run a guy over."
Learning a smarter and less physically taxing way to play defense has been among the top priorities for the Minnehaha Academy graduate in his rookie NBA season.
