Sabonis continues to blossom as one of the most impressive frontcourt stars in his fourth season with the surprisingly-competitive Pacers squad.
The 23-year-old entered Thursday night's game averaging 17.5 points, 13.3 rebounds and 4.0 assists, and he has been just as impressive on the defensive end. Sabonis ranked 15th in defensive rating and seventh in defensive win shares, according to Basketball Reference.
The Lithuanian was supposed to be the sweetener in the deal that also brought Victor Oladipo to the Pacers while sending Paul George to the Oklahoma City Thunder, but instead he looks like an All-Star. The 6-foot-11 forward might not be able to stretch the floor a whole lot, but he has tremendous length to go along with his size, and he boasts some excellent footwork in the post.
Of course, Sabonis also has tremendous athleticism, just in case the clip did not make that evident.
