    Drives per game isn’t a good stat to determine this sort of thing. They always come up but drives aren’t very high up on the list of plays likely to lead to FTs.

    The highest are things like put-backs, lobs, post-ups, and dunks (you’re standing under the basket and someone passes to you). So yeah big physical players/teams tend to be higher in these and get more FTs despite not driving as much.
