Connective guard who keeps the offense functional and quietly punishes help.
How he helps us
He is their organizer. He shoots it well enough to matter, passes it well enough to steer the whole shape of the offense, and rarely plays loud or loose.
How opponents guard him
Do not lose him to the "pass-first guard" trap. He is not high-volume, but 54% from three on real attempts means he cannot be ignored. Go under only if you are prepared to live with a make. Better answer is to gap him just enough to invite the drive, then make him finish.
How opponents attack him
Force him into scorer mode. Load up on Benson/Plumlee actions and make Attila become the shot finisher. On the other end, put size on him when possible and make him absorb contact.
Assignment priority

Their attack targetMedium. He is not the weakness, but you do want to force him out of his comfort lane.

Attila gets the weakest or second-weakest scorer so he can organize and help
Bulldogs are the cleanest offense in the league when the ball moves and the floor stays spaced. The team wins with shot quality, not chaos. The offense should look connected, not rushed. The defense does not need to create a ton of steals if the team rebounds,…
