2018 Defensive Player of the Year Prediction
Draymond Green dominated the league on the defensive end last year and took home his first ever Defensive Player of the Year award. Rudy Gobert gave him a good fight in the race, but in the end, Green's versatility and impact for the best team in the NBA was too much to overcome.

This season's race is destined to be the exact opposite of last year's, so with that let's dive into my top five candidates for the award.
