Scoring efficiency
68.9% true shooting places Luke Kornet at the 98th percentile among all qualified players, across positions. The next question is how much of that efficiency survives harder shots or a larger role.

League percentiles: 412 players with at least 20 games, 300 minutes and 100 field-goal attempts in 2025-26. Higher means more of the named statistic. Per-36 rates describe production in the recorded role; they do not project starter minutes.

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.
NBA source record ↗Free-throw volume
41.9 FTA / 100 FGA places Luke Kornet at the 91st percentile among all qualified players, across positions. Look for how the trips are earned: drives, post work, putbacks or intentional fouls.
Inspect the record ↓What happens when the defender helps?
There are no three-point attempts in this sample. On film, look for the alternative: screening, cutting, interior touches or passing that makes a help defender pay.
Inspect the record ↓Decisions under pressure
4.50 assists per turnover is a starting point. Rewatch possessions against traps and late-clock pressure; this ratio alone cannot tell you how difficult the passing job was.

Where the shots actually came from.
7 attempts
3 of the last 3 recorded regular-season appearances have event logs that reconcile with the player’s box-score shooting totals. These zones describe that subset.
Rim: under 4 feet. Short twos: 4 to under 14 feet. Long twos: 14 feet and farther. NBA event labels determine three-pointers. 100.0% of made field goals carried an assist credit in these logs.
