Eh. I'd live with that shot all game. He won't make it often enough to outpace most teams and there's very little chance to draw a foul to boost the PPS. He could make it 45% of the time and lose.

He's 7'2 275 pounds. Its a shot he hits and we've seen it multiple times this year

Sure. He can hit it. He's a mediocre 44.7% shooter from 5-9 ft range this year. That's all shots. This fadaway has a high degree of difficulty. So yeah, I'm fine giving him a fadaway shot in that range because he won't hit it at a good enough rate to be a quality shot overall.

Bro I dont think you understand. He's not suppose to be able to do that at all. Since when is 44% mediocre?

From 5 to 9 feet it is very mediocre.

It's simple math for why it isn't efficient. 44% on a fadaway, one of the least fouled shots from inside, equates to just 0.88 points per shot. Shooting 30% from 3pt is more efficient than that. Also, shooting 44% on the fadaway shot itself is highly unlikely. League average is just over 32%.

Give me the % of other centers from that range

Of centers with at least 75 attempts in 5-9 ft range he is 8th out of 24. He has the 11th most attempts.

Dwight Howard and Drummond stand out looking at this. Howard is 5th in attempts at 125 but 2nd worst at just 30.4%. Drummond is top 10 in attempts with 108 but last at 26.9% lol. Stop shooting Drummond.

At the Suns game and Devin Booker is just unconscious right now. Back to back to back 3's. 3rd youngest player in NBA history to 4,000 points.

If the Wolves do anything in the playoffs its solely gonna be because of KAT and Butler. Wiggins is so mentally soft and doesn't have that killer instinct, Teague and Thibs are just a couple b***hes.

I wanted Wiggins so bad in that draft. It was Winless for Wiggins all year lol. Now I am very happy Embiid broke his foot during workouts lol

Embiid was the best prospect that year. At least I felt that way. Even with Embiid's injury history - he is easily the best player from that year. I believe he already is the best or 2nd best Center in the league.

Sixers should just be careful with him. There are only about 12-15 b2b games now. No need to play him in those games. Ever.

Sixers arent limiting his playing time/games anymore. Hes played in the last 3 back to back games. The bubble wrap is off

Houston/Boston game is crazy. Everyone who played from the Boston bench outplayed every starter for Boston and made this a compelling contest. None of the starters can make a play and Houston looks like they are gonna get it done again. Horford and Kyrie just complete no shows in the 4th
