If Gilderoy Lockhart was such a famous duelist and slayer of dark creates and wizards, why didn’t his throngs of fans push him to confront Voldemort during the first wizarding war? He obviously wouldn’t have done it, but he should’ve been branded a coward for it. – 6:33 PM

Since some fans have asked about Deni Avdija’s chances for All-Defense: it’s early, but not crazy given how he’s played.
Just worth noting only four players have made All-Defense at Age 21 or younger: Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, Anthony Davis, Dejounte Murray. – 2:00 PM
