Never seen a player do this so consistently; he's a defensive genius.

Grand Theft Alvarado is the hardest nickname I’ve ever heard 🔥

[tyler-hpoq]

It's like they dont expect someone to play like this in a professional league. You only ever see people doing stuff like this at the park or gym lol.

[shankeybihan]

Thats how it should be. We need more players like him

[chrisc]

The speed at which he is running and then he precisely slaps the ball out every time, its crazy

[alexandekor]

He is that type of player you hate to play against, but love to have on your team

[lestepback]

He is literally hiding behind people this is hilarious

[charlesking]

This man's hustle is on a different level. It's embarrassing that more guys don't play as hard as him.

I love this, NBA players get so laxed taking the ball up the court, I’m glad to see someone show true hustle to exploit that!

[patricknikoghosyan]

He must be the most annoying player to play against imagine him defending you 😂 a true genius

[ghonna]

Great play style and intelligence to read the floor. This man really capitalized on a track down steal. The stealth and patience is awesome to watch, the hard work gives me Rodman vibes.

[dizzyvolt]

[Sloshyx]

I wish everyone played like this.
Now everyone in the league are going to be on their feet.

[orlandorodriguez]

Love his strategy... the steals look like a blooper real for the other team!

[jomarilacubtan]

I always hear people sayin "watch out"😂

[valberlin]

This guy makes me laugh harder than actually comedy does. 😂
He literally uses his size to his advantage and hide behind bigger people. 👌🏽👌🏽

Friendly reminder; this man was ACC Defensive Player of the Year before he came to the NBA. Fair to say New Orleans knew they were getting a defensive keystone
