Mismatch Expert Badge
Mismatch expert is only available to guards 6'4 and under. The badge starts triggering when your defender is 3 inches taller than you and the boost grows as that height differential increases.
While the description indicates the badge requires a switch, no switch is currently required by the game for this badge to activate.
