He has 1 game where he shot exactly 50%. That was a 26 point effort on 12/24 shooting against the Suns. He also has only 1 game above 60% TS and that was a few nights ago against Denver where he put up 27/9. He shot 11/11 from the line that game
The last time he had a game where he shot over 50% from the field was on October 28th 2022. The time before that was March 2022 in his rookie season

That is a mind boggling stat. To be fair to Cade though, this is essentially his ‘second season’ in the NBA so people shouldn’t jump on the bust bandwagon so fast.
exactly, I think it’s still way too early to judge if he’s a bust or not but stuff like not even trying on defense is something that’s definitely concerning.
Why is everyone saying this as if it’s an excuse? Does him being bad and injury prone somehow make him a better prospect??
