Does anyone have any evidence/data to support this being a good/bad idea?

Opinions are important, too, of course.

Avery Bradley (Celtics)? His OD would be on 20+

Will you continue to develop his SB? I'm curious what a maybe 15-17 SB guard would do against LI. I haven't seen any and doubt there would be one around (apart from that Haek? guy).

Small sample, but I used my C (31690457) (11ish SB) as guard three games this season and he averaged 4blk/g

It depends on your defense. If you play a lot of 3-2 zone, you almost don't need SB on your guards. But if you play m2m, especially against LI, SB is a gift for your guard. It's not as powerful as SB on the bigs, but it's still enough.
Haek had his best SB season as a guard during Season 27. He had 2.2 blks/game as a PG (11 games - 3-2 zone). Compaired to his best C seasons (S-26 5 blks/game and S-28 4.7 blks/game - also 3-2 zone, 12 games each season) it's low.

http://www.buzzerbeater.com/player/26270986/overview.aspx on the transfer list has 19 SB and has played guard and big this season...

The only games he didn't block a shot in where as PG or SG.

That being said it doesn't mean that his shot blocking capabilities helped in other ways to deter shots or alter them. That's just harder to see.
