My coworker brought this up today and I thought he was misreading his statline somehow. Looked at his stat page, and yeah, it really is only five on the year. I already knew he wasn’t one to draw fouls but you’d think you’d at least accidentally draw one shooting foul a game as a starter.
To his credit, he’s hit all five.

“Look, we cannot allow you to dominate. That will win us games. We are rebuilding these next few years. Look at the Wizards, they have Poole playing mediocre to increase odds of getting a draft lottery pick. We need to follow the same blueprint.”
