Watching Mikal Bridges from afar, on a screen of some sort, will undersell his defensive portfolio. His sprawling limbs that encase opponents cannot be fully appreciated in that manner. An in-person viewing is required.&nbsp;

It’ll illuminate how Bridges has asserted himself as one of the league’s premier perimeter defenders, largely on the basis of his ability to effectively combat pick-and-rolls and dribble handoffs. The Defensive Player of the Year runner-up finish and All-Defensive First Team berth in 2021-22 hint at his faculty, but cannot summarize the entirety of his brilliance.&nbsp;

Through 46 games this season, the 6-foot-6 forward is averaging a career-high 16.0 points (57.2 percent true shooting), 4.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.1 steals. He’s exploring wider depths of his offensive capacities by testing out more off-the-dribble escapades and mismatch scoring against undersized defenders.&nbsp;

Some of this reshaping appears to be an internal and schematic emphasis to diversify his game. Some of it stems from Devin Booker and Chris Paul’s prolonged absences. According to Cleaning The Glass, a career-high 28 percent of his makes are unassisted this year.&nbsp;

Yet the nucleus of Bridges’ game persists on the other end of the floor. He’s going to play a ton of minutes, both because he can and he’s the Suns’ most vaunted defender. The core of his prowess are those skills that must be witnessed up close. Whether it’s ball screens or dribble handoffs, Bridges is remarkably adept at winding his slender frame around hulking defenders and staying attached to assignments, many of whom are decorated stars.

Pick-and-rolls and dribble handoffs are the two most popular means by which offenses construct advantages in the half-court. If they’re involved on a scoring possession, the outcome’s success or lack thereof can often be traced back to how that action transpired.&nbsp;

Bridges, with his flexibility, body control and 7-foot-1 wingspan, is an expert at preventing those typically reliable plays from spinning the defense into rotation. He extends his arms wide, puffs out his chest and confronts dudes with his torso. Beneficial angles are difficult to attain against him for offenses. The way he prepares for screens before they arrive gives him an advantage. He understands how to position himself to neutralize the potential impact of a screen.

“He almost envelops (players) when he's guarding the ball and, like, presses against the body, doesn't use his hands, presses his body against yours. He can slide his hips to navigate those handoffs and those ball-screens,” Resch said. “He really utilizes the frame that he has in order to do that.”

Separation is a foreign word to him in these instances, as is fouling. Bridges averages 2.3 fouls per 36 minutes for his career. Including the postseason, he’s only fouled out three times in 390 NBA games. The last time he did so was Jan. 1, 2020, 264 games ago. In Phoenix’s 117-112 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday, he played 42 minutes and didn’t record a single foul.

Discipline is integral to his defensive aptitude. He is routinely stationed in the proper spots, ranging from peel switches to nail help to low man responsibilities to zoning up on the weakside. Whereas some defensive pests thrive as intrepid gamblers, Bridges’ head coach at Villanova, Jay Wright, instilled a different ideal.&nbsp;

Turnovers were to be accrued by on-ball containment rather than aggressive risk-taking. That approach is evident nightly in Bridges’ approach. His background as a Villanova Wildcat, given Wright and the program’s pedigree, charmed the Suns prior to their selection of him in 2018.

“If you really want to get down to the nuts and bolts of it, it's a foundation thing,” Resch said. “One of the biggest appeals of Mikal Bridges is where he came from.”

Bridges’ attention to detail spans away from the action as well. He excels at fronting bigger plays inside to deter entry passes. When thrust into help, he can extinguish two options at once, fueled by astute positioning and that omnipresent length.&nbsp;

Even 4.5 seasons into his NBA tenure, his wingspan still sneaks up on those who try to slip passes or drives past him, as if he’s not rendered that decision costly on many occasions before. His ground coverage on and off the ball is wide-ranging. The best defenders can mitigate breakdowns by countering multiple choices simultaneously. That’s the sort of signature Bridges consistently leaves. 

The majority of his steals and blocks aren’t the result of some awe-inspiring rotation or daring play. Instead, they’re derived from his incessant habit of staunchly being in the correct spot. Those defensive stats tend to just fall in his lap. They may sometimes look like good fortune, but they’re the result of acing the leadup every single time. Rewind the play or follow Bridges specifically the entire time and his greatness is unmistakable.

For any prospect or player, there has to be at least one reason a coach entrusts them with playing time. It’s a vital question to determine, especially when drafting someone. Whether it’s in the immediate future or down the line, having a clear answer to “what’s their path to minutes?” is necessary. The response for Bridges was three-fold among Phoenix’s front office.

The Suns deemed his perimeter defense, corner shooting and transition scoring all avenues to the floor. Nearly half a decade later, Bridges has asserted himself as a premier stopper who should be a mainstay among All-Defensive Team conversations for years to come. He’s also netted 40.8 percent of his career corner triples. According to Synergy, he’s ranked in the 89th percentile or better in transition points per possession three out of the past four seasons -- this year, with Phoenix riddled by injuries, is the lone outlier.&nbsp;

His presumptively bankable skills have been, well, completely bankable, amplified by his durability (yet to miss an NBA game) and aerobic threshold (led the league in total minutes last season, is second this season).&nbsp;

“When you can combine all three into one player, you're not just looking at his shooting, you're not just looking at a defender. That's really how you get on the floor, is offering multiple (skills) at a time,” Resch said. “We're talking about a player at Villanova who was remarkably consistent who had a baseline skill set in every area of basketball who could come in and play an elite role from day one.”

The Constantly Evolving and Improving Skillset of Mikal Bridges

During the Phoenix Suns first-round series win over the New Orleans Pelicans last spring, Chris Paul witnessed virtually the entire gamut of defensive coverages thrown his direction. CJ McCollum, Herbert Jones, Brandon Ingram, Naji Marshall, Jose Alvarado, Trey Murphy III and Devonte’ Graham all spent time as his primary defender.&nbsp;

The Pelicans played drop coverage. They trapped. They switched. They hedged. They iced him to try and siphon off the middle of the floor. They stationed their big man at the level.&nbsp;

They kept rangier defenders in Jaxson Hayes and Larry Nance Jr. as the big in ball screens. They elected for more size and brawn with Jonas Valancius at other moments. They applied full-court pressure. They picked him up immediately past half-court.

None of it consistently proved effective. Paul’s decade and a half of NBA experience, headlined by 23 playoff series and more than 1,100 regular season games, forged him for those trials.&nbsp;

Throughout Phoenix’s six-game victory, the veteran point guard averaged 22.3 points, 11.3 assists (1.5 turnovers), 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals. He netted 56.7 percent of his 90 field goals and registered a 66.3 percent true shooting clip. It was a 221-minute clinic on point guard play and how to dissect an array of coverages.

New Orleans, much like everyone else around the league, knew Paul wanted to wiggle himself to the (right) elbow for his longtime, patented midrange pull-up. But the Pelicans couldn’t unearth an answer the entire series. Despite Paul’s status as a 36-year-old, 6-foot guard in his 17th season, he dominated, riding his scrupulous shot profile to bountiful success, much like he’s done for years upon years.&nbsp;

The bedrock of this prolonged success stems from his ball-screen wizardry. Last season, per Synergy, including passes, he ranked in the 89th percentile in points per possession on pick-and-rolls (1.108 PPP). A year prior, he ranked in the 90th percentile (1.081 PPP). This season, he ranks in the 78th percentile (1.063 PPP).&nbsp;

“With Chris, it's a hyper-rational mind, it's a very logical individual who understood exactly how to run a pick-and-roll and the reads that come out of it,” said Ryan Resch, Suns Vice President of Basketball Strategy and Evaluation. “Like, he almost was built to do exactly what he does mentally, which is run a very rote, hyper-efficient, systematic pick-and-roll system.”

Just as he did against New Orleans, Paul is regimented and stellar about reaching his spots on the hardwood. To do so, he brilliantly sets up screens, largely rooted in his slippery, economical and functional handle. He loves to ram defenders into picks and create an angle to the elbows -- usually, on the right side. It’s not uncommon for Paul to dart side to side, sending the opposition through a funhouse of screen navigation.

All of his dribble moves are purposeful. There is nothing wasted about them, no crossing over or dancing around for the sake of it. From in-and-outs that bait his defender into leaning the wrong way to shifty crossovers, Paul is constantly weaponizing his handle for pick-and-roll creation. It’s a major component in how he ventures where he needs at his size, with his physical tools. Dribbling is second-nature, which enables him to focus on everything else that confronts his thought processes on the basketball court.

“When it just becomes rhythmic for you to dribble the ball, it does free your mind up to just focus on what's in front of you,” Resch said. “That's his form of creativity, ‘can I get you to bite on something ridiculous now and open up a different kind of passing lane?’”

Compounding Paul’s potency is how well he scans the floor once he does arrive at his preferred destination, which he routinely does. His recognition and understanding of how to manipulate angles for himself and others is among the league’s best. He’s a technician at engaging the requisite defender(s) to fashion passing windows and immediately delivering reads when they become available.&nbsp;

Opponents respect his immense midrange gravity and that frees up tiny, precise openings to rollers often when the big defender steps up to contain his scoring. His nearly 4:1 career assist-to-turnover ratio is a testament to this marriage of passing talent and decision-making.

“The thing about passing is that it's deceptively simple, when it comes to it being a skill,” Resch said. “And that's what Chris understood so inherently, is just mastering the absolute simple fundamentals of the game.”

Although Paul is experiencing an outlier down year from midrange (43 percent, per Cleaning The Glass), he’s been a posterboy for its utility spanning a decade. Since 2012-13, he’s shot at least 50 percent from midrange seven times, including 52 percent or better three times. Between 2012-13 and 2021-22, he ranked no lower than the 85th percentile and finished in the 97th percentile or better five times.&nbsp;

If Kevin Durant is running away with this era’s title of midrange maven, Paul is routing the rest of the field for second. He knows exactly where he wants to be and holsters the means to do so, headlined by his pacing and ball-handling. Once he gets there, he’s equipped to strike as a playmaker or scorer.

“The passing is opened up by the elbow jump shot. If you drop against Chris, he's really good making that shot,” Resch said. “And by the time you start adjusting to him making that shot, it's what opens up all the passing lanes.”

In each of the past three seasons, Paul nabbed both an All-Star and All-NBA berth. When he made All-NBA Third Team a year ago, he joined John Stockton as the lone 36-or-older guard to earn such an appearance. Across all positions, the other players to do so are Tim Duncan, Shaquille O’Neal, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Hakeem Olajuwon and LeBron James.&nbsp;

Paul’s candidacy and sustained excellence are the result of his meticulous, prolific ball-screen prowess. It helped guide the Suns to a pair of top-six finishes offensively in 2020-21 and 2021-22, and is the nucleus of their pick-and-roll-centric scheme.&nbsp;

Whereas fellow pick-and-roll dynamos like Stephen Curry and Damian Lillard win on the basis of the long-range bombs and downhill burst, Paul is a different flavor. Fifteen years after his first All-Star Game, he’s still draining elbow jumpers, anticipating rotations and moves before others can, and weaving punctual pocket passes inside to befuddle defenses.&nbsp;

“Chris' inherent understanding of that, I think, is really what gave him an advantage over all this time,” Resch said. “He just became a master at it.”

CHRIS PAUL’S PICK-AND-ROLL PROWESS

During Jay Triano’s time as head coach of the Phoenix Suns, which spanned the overwhelming portion of Devin Booker’s third NBA season in 2017-18, he periodically entrusted the sweet-shooting guard with play-calling duties during huddles. Triano promptly identified the high-level feel evident in Booker’s game, so he established a collaboration of sorts with the 21-year-old to help further cultivate that feel.

Triano wasn’t the lone member of the Suns organization to spot Booker’s basketball instincts early in his career. Various members of the front office did as well. It’s partly why they were steadfast in his stardom being inevitable, even as outside noise foolishly questioned Booker’s impact on winning while Phoenix trudged through various tumultuous seasons during his formative years.&nbsp;

Roughly 4.5 years after moonlighting as offensive coordinator, Booker is months removed from an All-NBA First Team appearance, a fourth-place MVP finish and piloting top-seeded Phoenix to a franchise-record 64 wins in 2021-22. Prior to suffering a left groin strain late last month, he’d continued to assert himself as a premier NBA guard and amplify his stardom.

Through 29 games, the 26-year-old is averaging a career-high 27.1 points, 5.6 assists and 4.6 rebounds. He’s shooting 47.7 percent from the floor, 37 percent beyond the arc and 85 percent at the charity stripe, which coalesce for 58.5 percent true shooting. The past 1.5 seasons are a culmination of the shooting gifts he’s holstered since entering the association seven years ago.&nbsp;

As Booker’s game evolves, he’s become increasingly selective in where he seeks out shots. He’s inventive in how he arrives at a few specific spots rather than being inventive by exploring a vast array of spots, a trait that distinguishes him from some of the other foremost shooting guards around the league.&nbsp;

It’s an approach accelerated by the arrival of Chris Paul -- who is seemingly impossible to prevent from reaching his preferred right elbow for pull-ups -- and bolstered his interior aptitude. Over Booker’s first three seasons, he shot 45.5 percent on two-pointers. During the past four seasons, he’s shot 53.3 percent.&nbsp;

“Once he took that on, is when he really unlocked the hyper-efficient version of himself inside the arc,” said Ryan Resch, Suns Vice President of Basketball Strategy and Evaluation. “It's just so impressive to watch the maturation of that game because that kind of change from, ‘I'm going to shoot all over the place,’ to, ‘I'm going to be hyper-focused, and should instead be creative in how to get to these spots.’ It's not something that you see very often with the scorers, guys who are just used to shooting the ball so much.”

That brief list of habitual spots include the left wing and elbow pull-ups. When Booker frequents those regions, his start-stop quickness and elevated release point render his assignment’s job more arduous than it already was. He’ll stomp on the brakes at a moment’s notice to manufacture space and can alter the height of his release or arc based on the circumstances. What could constitute a viable contest against many does not always remain as such against Booker.

Even if he’s drifting side to side, his body is almost always squared toward the rim. He often decelerates and rises before defenders are ready. It’s truly remarkable how he maintains such delicate touch across a spectrum of angles, releases and arcs -- a testament to his meticulous footwork and upper-body mechanics. Conventional thought may suggest that the farther the ball is from one’s body, the harder it is to influence the accuracy. Booker’s shot-making portfolio rejects that sentiment.&nbsp;

“He’s really, really into the details: footwork, game-plan discipline, tendencies of players, tendencies of the defense and being able to take advantage of it,” said Suns assistant coach Jarrett Jack. “When you have somebody as talented as he is just naturally, and then, he’s engulfed in small nuances to get an advantage, I think it takes him to an entirely different level.”

Much like his backcourt mate, the intermediate zone is Booker’s utopia. According to Cleaning The Glass, he hasn’t ranked below the 83rd percentile in midrange accuracy the last five seasons, nor has he dipped below the 86th percentile in midrange frequency during that span.&nbsp;

His scoring isn’t confined to the midrange, though. It’s merely the foundation through which everything flows. He’s a genuine four-level scorer. Since 2021-22, he’s shot 37.9 percent from deep, blending off-the-bounce bombs and spot-up snipes. On pull-up triples, he’s shooting 35.6 percent; off the catch, he’s shooting 43.3 percent. His free-throw rate (.255 in 2021-22, .304 in 2022-23) has been above league average each season. He’s shot 68 percent at the rim both years, placing in the 72nd and 74th percentiles among wings.

“He’s probably the best, most difficult shot-maker in the league,” Jack said. “He probably has the most deadly midrange game in the league. And then, he can also, to complement that, he can shoot the long ball.”

Booker’s prolific shooting is the result of streamlined mechanics that generate power from the forearm and wrist. There’s no superfluous motion; he’s economical. Resch compared those aspects to accomplished gunners like Stephen Curry and Joe Harris. The three-time All-Star’s compact technique, with torque produced from a discernible area, painted a rosy outlook within Suns brass for his long-term shooting projection. Booker’s mechanics are easily replicable. There’s consistency in each shot. That’s a vital indicator for sustained success.&nbsp;

Phoenix incorporates those skills prominently into its motion- and screen-heavy offense. Booker is a dynamite off-ball scorer who keenly sets up, reads and utilizes picks. They love to deploy him as a screener in Spain pick-and-rolls and feed him touches on the move, often via Chicago action (pindown screen into dribble handoff) or staggered screens. Screen-the-screener sets are also part of the playbook.

His body control and footwork shine in these scenarios. He takes concise routes around picks that ram his defender into the obstacle and grant him an advantage. Much like he doesn’t need to be on balance for pull-up profits, the same applies to his off-ball presence. As long as his body is squared toward the hoop, he’s comfortable.&nbsp;

Although Paul’s integration to his Southwest digs reduced Booker’s playmaking burden, he’s nonetheless sharpened his facilitating in recent seasons, especially with the way he optically manipulates defenders to fashion opportunities. He can laser cross-court skip passes from a live dribble, cast lobs against pressure and is better equipped to set up bigs with well-placed interior feeds nowadays. His willingness and capacity to deliver reads through narrow windows inside have emerged as assets.

“He’s really punishing teams with the pass, keeping teams honest, making the proper play that’s necessary within the possession,” Jack said. “So many guys that are extremely talented, they’ll have their mind made up and kind of preconceive the read a little bit. And he takes it as it comes to him.”

According to Cleaning The Glass, his 9.2 percent turnover rate this season is a career-low (82nd percentile), while his 24.7 percent assist rate is in the 96th percentile. When Paul missed a month of games from early November to early December, Booker assumed a grander creation role, merging his scoring weaponry with multifaceted, albeit frugal, passing. The former has long existed in his playmaking repertoire; the latter is constantly blossoming. The Suns’ braintrust always believed it would, too.

“One of the biggest indicators of passing is … the ability to get to the spots to make the pass,” Resch said. “He's able to get to his spot, slow down, and, then, figure out where he's at."

Booker was 18 years old when he debuted in the NBA. He’s averaged at least 22.1 points per game every season since 2016-17. He notched his first All-Star berth at 23. His silky, vibrant scoring package prevented him from ever really hiding in the shadows of anonymity, despite Phoenix’s collective struggles.

And yet, he is just now entering his prime. These next few years should be his finest. He’s shooting, passing and defending at the most impactful levels of his career. He is the figurehead of this club, just like he was all those seasons ago, drawing up plays for the Triano-led Suns.&nbsp;

Attention to Detail and Efficiency: The Keys to Devin Booker's Offensive Bag of Tricks

A core tenet of any scouting philosophy is initially determining if a prospect meets the NBA threshold physically. It indicates whether their skill-set can be the bedrock of crafting a significant footprint. If physical limitations prevent someone from getting to their spots on the floor, all the other traits will constantly be working uphill and decline in practicality. Circumventing that hurdle is a precarious endeavor. Skill only travels so far if athleticism is a steadfast hindrance.

For the Phoenix Suns, there were no doubts in that regard with Deandre Ayton. He immediately hit the physical benchmark. At 7 feet tall, his intersection of size and mobility stand out upon first glance. He moves like he’s 6’5”. Almost every game, he’s at a significant advantage against his counterpart in the middle. He glides and bounds across the 4,700-square-foot court with an elegance that belies his stature.&nbsp;

Among some within the organization, his “sheer physical talent” established a baseline of nightly double-doubles as a rookie. His tools were that rarified and functional. An assimilation to the league was expected, but he would produce from the outset while navigating said assimilation.&nbsp;

“When you can move the way he can move, at the size he can move, your possibilities for scoring are amplified,” said Ryan Resch, Suns Vice President of Basketball Strategy and Evaluation.

In the years following his inaugural season, the 24-year-old center has transformed himself from promising youngster as an All-Rookie First Team selection to rising star. Roughly a third of the way into his fifth campaign, the former Arizona Wildcat is averaging 18.1 points and 9.7 rebounds on 64.6 percent true shooting. He’s riding an especially prolific wave over his past 17 games, averaging 21.2 points and 10.6 rebounds on 67.9 percent true shooting.&nbsp;

Ayton is an exceptional play-finisher. He and Chris Paul share refined chemistry in ball screens. He and Devin Booker’s five-year partnership is flourishing. Outside of Nikola Jokic, Ayton probably possesses the deftest interior touch among centers around the NBA, a characteristic that popped when the Suns scouted him prior to the 2018 Draft.&nbsp;

His comfort zone is about 15 feet and in, and he’s money within that region. According to Cleaning The Glass, he’s shooting 83 percent at the rim (95th percentile among bigs) and 47 percent from midrange (65th percentile). Last season, he shot 77 percent at the rim (89th percentile) and 56 percent from midrange (94th percentile).

Not only is Ayton exceptional in his play-finishing, he’s multifaceted. Over the years, he’s developed a slew of patented weapons to excel as a post scorer or pick-and-roll release valve. The hook shot is a particular favorite. He’s netted 64.8 percent of his 219 attempts the past two seasons, per NBA.com.&nbsp;

Hundreds of hours of practice are discernible in this move. Take zero to three dribbles. Plant the left leg as the inside foot. Turn over the left shoulder. Yield profits. Follow accordingly next time. It’s like he scribbles the steps on his palm and mutters them to himself before acting. They’re second-nature.

While he prefers to catch on the left block and shoot from about a step beyond the restricted area, those specific factors are not prerequisites for his success. The beauty and merit of Ayton’s hook shot is its portability. His graceful footwork and touch migrate throughout the paint. Rigidity is absent in his approach.

Whereas some bigs of Ayton’s profile -- 7 feet tall, 250 pounds -- may gravitate toward brute force as a leading component of their play style, this center leans on dexterity of both hands and feet. His embrace of the floater the last couple seasons embodies that.&nbsp;

For him, it could be classified as more of a push or flip shot. Floaters are typically associated with shots released off one leg, a la Jokic’s dastardly effective runner. Ayton tends to fire away with both feet anchored to the court. It’s become a counter to avoid charges on the roll, late arriving taggers or firing before the defense can reorganize itself, while simultaneously further diversifying his interior scoring repertoire.&nbsp;

Enabling Ayton to showcase his pristine footwork and delicate touch is heightened recognition of angles. His off-ball instincts have swelled in recent years. Acutely cognizant of where he exists on the floor in relation to others, he’s better equipped to thrive as a cutter and dive man. He frequents open space for putbacks and other scoring avenues. He properly paces his rolls to the rim to ease passing windows for ball-handlers. He can increasingly leverage his footwork and touch as a self-creator.

“His visual acuity and spatial awareness has improved. He can do more things with the ball in his hands, he can move in tighter spaces,” Resch said. “That's all a function of repetition, but it's also a function of a body that has developed the motor skills to speed up and slow down, and turn on a dime.”

While Ayton utilizes his left leg for stability on hook shots, his right leg is the limb of preference on turnaround fadeaways. In varying the gather phase and process of delivery on two of his foundational moves, he complicates matters for defenders. Both are favorites of his. Eliminating one leg as the pivot foot doesn’t mean the opposition has won. Sitting on the left leg in fear of a hook shot opens an opportunity for the right leg to facilitate another option in the toolbox.

Watching a 7-footer drift away from the hoop may be frustrating or confounding. Yet for Ayton, it broadens his choices on any given touch and is merely another way to ensure the defense cannot box him in. Since the beginning of 2021-22, he’s drilled 48.4 percent (75 of 155) of his turnaround jumpers, per NBA.com. Much like the hook shot, note his footwork, body control, haste with which he functions and the different spots he scores at. He’s rhythmic every single time.&nbsp;

The final member of Ayton’s reliable scoring quartet is the face-up jumper. He keeps that left leg firmly in the ground and wields a lively right foot, tap-dancing in his defender’s orbit, searching for space, no matter how small, before concisely rising for buckets. Overwhelmingly, he is at peace when he fires off these looks. They may not fall, but they’re a focal point of his arsenal. Hoisting one up is frequently a win for him. Jab, elevate, launch, trot back on defense -- that’s the recipe.

The most prosperous scoring stretches of Ayton’s career coincide with generating his ideal shots, like the run he’s currently amid. Almost every time these surges occur, the definition of an ideal shot seems to expand.

“From a skill-set standpoint,” Resch said, “we are seeing the consequence, the positive consequence, for the effect of repetition.”

These flurries are rooted in the feathery touch he’s long possessed, which helped provide him a notable scoring pulse upon entering the NBA four years ago. This pulse remains notable, simply on a much grander scale, yet nonetheless linked to his distinct touch, a longstanding lifeblood of his game.
