How to read this profile

Percentiles compare this season’s qualified NBA players across all positions. Rebounding reflects opportunity as well as skill; assists depend on touches and teammates; shot volume does not measure gravity. True shooting uses aggregate points and attempts, with a 0.44 free-throw multiplier. Per-36 rates use recorded minutes, which may be rounded in historical NBA game logs.

Film question

How much should you trust the jumper?

39.9% from three on 514 attempts. Separate catch-and-shoot looks from pull-ups, and open attempts from contested ones, before projecting the percentage.
