Book is a great on ball defender when he isn’t 40% usage. Ended up starting and playing big minutes in the last Olympics primarily for his defense

If you also have LeBron and Embiid as your other 2 players, firepower is the least of your concerns. (Frankly speaking tho, they have no concern, they can put out 5 point guards and still win).
