Whether the San Antonio Spurs are playing at home or not, Jakob Poeltl sends a familiar message to opponents every night: don’t come into my house. Dropping back in his pick-and-roll coverage to defend the paint, the Spurs big man keeps pace with a talented Portland Trail Blazers scorer, timing up his jump perfectly to send a shot attempt out of bounds. Poeltl, No. 5 in total blocks in 2021-22, put on a shot-rejecting clinic in a 133-96 blowout win on March 23, 2022, dominating to the tune of 16 points, nine rebounds, six blocks and a steal. · Mar 24, 2022
