Redick: It will give Ayton important defensive tasks He was once the defensive core of the team in the finals

Redick was interviewed before the preseason with the Warriors.

Speaking of the team's performance in the game and his remarks that he was not worried about the number of shots after the game, Redick said: "I want to say that he and Jackson (Hayes) have both outstanding performances at the basket, not only blocking, but also the defensive deterrence of vertical jumps. Christie (Korlock) did this after the game. Looking at our three centers - although Christie is a two-way contract player - few teams in the league can have such three inside players with mobility and athleticism. They were supposed to be the defensive pillars, but no one did a great job in this last game. In our sinking defense, DeAndre (Aiton) had several great rounds, missed the tip-in at the basket and returned to defend the all-time contact after a missed tip-in, and guarded the penalty area in the pick-and-roll, although that was not our defensive strategy. Through training and September's group practice, I saw him very flexible. We would give him important defensive tasks, after all, he was the core pillar of the defense system at the Finals level, and he was fully competent. "
