Team context: No. 2 opponent PPG; No. 1 opponent FG%
I drop nuts was the regular-season backend of the league’s best opponent-shooting defense. The individual evidence supports meaningful credit: 3.2 steals, efficient spacing and an undefeated PF record. IQ finished No. 1 in opponent FG% and No. 2 in opponent PPG, the strongest eligible team-defense combination.
The Five Star playoff series weakens the final case. IQ went 0-2, his steal rate dropped, and he averaged only five points. That does not erase the regular season, but it separates him from the two players above.
Why not higher: The sample is small and the playoff impact was limited.
Why not lower: His regular-season individual production and league-best defensive environment align too strongly to dismiss as mere team credit.
