Conley's size is an issue sometimes but he at least has defensive IQ and stays in front of his man, doesn't get back cut or forget where his man is supposed to be.
Brogdon's defensive RAPTOR stat was -1.3 last year. Conley was at +2.3.
Brogdon is more like Mitchell and Clarkson on the defensive end.
Conley is good, but he's so small that he has to really exert himself and push his body to the limits to be competitive on defense. He's probably been told not to play that hard during the regular season in order to preserve his health. Last year, he was pulling his hamstring every 5 or so games after the All Star break.
