Matisse Thybulle

One of the NBA's most disruptive perimeter defenders, Thybulle turns steals into an art form — his gambling, passing-lane-hunting style twice earned All-Defensive honors and repeatedly put him atop the league's steal-rate leaderboard. A dual U.S.-Australian citizen, he anchored the Boomers to Olympic bronze in Tokyo and returned for Paris 2024. The knock has always been the other end: he is a streaky shooter whose offensive role stays narrow, and injuries have compounded it, holding him to just 30 games in 2025-26. Yet even in limited minutes his defensive rating ranked among the league's best and he again led the NBA in steal percentage. When healthy, few wings shrink a scorer's airspace like he does — a specialist whose value lives in the possessions that never become points against.
