    No one's putting him on their list because he's probably not even going to start. And even if he does get a lot of minutes, he's not the type of player who will fill up a stat sheet. He's going to do the little things and really help you out defensively, but the numbers he puts up will be insignificant in comparison to guys like Kevin Durant.
