Is Clarke a good defender besides blocking shots?

 

Excellent. According to Synergy Sports he ranked: 

91st percentile in overall defense

93rd percentile in PNR defense 

84th percentile around basket defense

82nd percentile in post up defense 

He has the potential to be an elite defensive player and rim runner, the perfect compliment to JJJ. Even though he's an older rookie he has a tremendous amount of room for growth too but at the very minimum he should be an elite defender and finisher.

Thanks for the info!

I'm reading more about him and coming around.

JJJ/Clarke can be scary good defensively. Plus JJJ is rangy enough to work offensively with Clarke long-term too. You're still a year or two away but another you have 3 building blocks with those guys plus Morant.
