Lots of people were talking about him at one point as the modern day version of Tim Duncan, but his inability to win despite having had a pretty strong supporting case and a #2 star in Jimmy Butler has me wondering if he's really all that impactful. I've seen some stats which show that he's among the worst defenders at his position in the entire league.

I would say he used to be overrated but now nobody talks about him which evens out to about properly rated.

I think he's rightly rated now. Everyone was high on him during his rookie season and predicted MVP level or Top 5 player in the future. But since Embiid emerged after injuries, everyone understands the level of impact he made right away on the 76ers compared to Towns lack of progress.

Him and Booker were definitely overrated (doesnt mean they aren't good though)

The wolves would be sucking even more if DROSE didn't go back 10 years in time.
