You can manage updates, but not the configuration from WSUS.

Windows Defender gets its updates via the WU engine. Just setup WSUS, point the clients to it, and approve updates as needed.

Also - my clients have not been recieving updates since I've started here....anything I should take a look at in WSUS and see why they arent getting any updates? I go to add/remove and windows updates, and it stalls on the clients....sorry Im new to WSUS...

Do you mean they dont get any updates or just windows defender updates?
Remember you control the clients ability to report and pickup the newest updates from the WSUS server through group policy.

Make sure everything is setup in group policy.
