Marcus Morris (aka, "the Mookster") was the NBA’s best defender of LeBron James during the 2015-16 regular season. According to ESPN’s Tom Haberstroh, James averaged just 20.5 points per 100 possessions when defended by Morris — his lowest average against any defender in the league that season.
That’s a striking statistic compared to James’s average over the course of that entire season: 36.5 points per 100 possessions.
As NBA.com noted that same year, James “averaged 20.7 points and shot just .308 from deep in three games against the Pistons this season, guarded mostly by Marcus Morris.”
