Can Genji deflect melee attacks?

I understand that Genji can deflect pretty much anything, save for beam weapons and a handful of lethal accessories. Can he deflect melee attacks though? I've been playing more Reaper lately, so I'm at a much closer proximity to characters, and normally if a Genji uses his deflect I stop firing to wait. Can I melee him safely, so that I'm not just moving around waiting for his deflect to end?


He will nullify the damage from any melee attack with the exception of Dragonblade, but won't reflect it back to the attacker.
