If another player defends an attack for me, who becomes the attack's target?

The official Rules Reference states this directly, and forum discussion agrees.

The defender. Defending an attack aimed at another player, with a hero or ally you control, makes you the new target, so the damage and attack effects fall on your side. Effects that already resolved before the defender was declared still refer to the originally attacked player, and a defending hero spends an exhaust to do it.
