Dyson Daniels has one of the most elite player nicknames of the current era
I heard him referred to as The Great Barrier Thief during ATL-NYK Game 1.
Dude‘s averaging 2 Steals per game for the season and is from Straya. Which makes the name self explanatory. It’s also a nice throwback to the era when nicknames were not just a riff on players‘ names - think The Truth, The Answer, Round Mound of Rebound et al.
Are there any other hype nicknames going around the league?
