Andre Drummond is a career .476 FT shooter.
Going 50% from the line would honestly be an improvement from his average. But of course, it still results in his team losing. I’m curious if the general fan views this as a choke or not.
Yeah, that’s a coaching choke
[For what it’s worth Drummond had a stretch where he shot 82% on clutch free throws.](Andre Drummond shooting 82-percent free throws in clutch)
No, it was a failure on his team’s part to be in that situation. If he needed 1 to tie or win, and missed both, that would be a choke. But he is a 50 percent ft shooter, so he hit his expected outcome.
Good question btw. Im sick of discussing “is player x better than player y” questions.
No
Having BBall as your full time job and only shooting .476 from the line makes your whole career a choke
Id be wondering why the fuck is Andre Drummond taking the last shot for my team
no bc the real choke would be letting him get to the ft line in such a close game
