When you picture “role player” in your head, OG Anunoby probably pops up.

He’s the perfect complementary piece for a high-level NBA team. A ferocious defender who can shut down opposing wings and has the strength to match up with bigger forwards, and a reliable 3-point shooter who can occasionally drive to the rack — in a straight line, mostly, but drive to the rack regardless.
Anunoby will never be an offensive hub, but on a team like the Knicks, surrounded by a playmaking point guard and a sharpshooting big, his skillset can shine. Anunoby fills in any cracks that a team may have, bringing consistent winning plays on both ends.
