3rd is Trae Young at 9.8 FTA.

Kevin Durant and Joel Embiid are tied at 4th/5th with 9.1 FTA.

Milwaukee Bucks are the top free throw merchant team at 29.3 FTA.

Are the Bucks the most exciting team in the league today?

    Fouling him is one of the best ways to guard him one on one, it’s either damn near a guaranteed bucket or you take your chances with a 70% ft shooter.

      This is the the answer with Giannis. Dude is a physical player who requires physical D so he’s going to get fouled. And it’s also good D to put him on the line since he’s such an inconsistent FT shooter. The problem is if he shoots 80% from the stripe he ends up with 45+ on the night.

      you take your chances with a 70% ft shooter.

      He’s been worse in recent seasons. The only anomaly was the 21/22 season when he shot a respectable 72%.

      In his early days he was a decent mid-70s FT shooter but his shot deteriorated.
