Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 3694524, member: 767"] I saw a pretty crazy about Zion yesterday, and I had to look it up to verify. Zion takes 12 shots per game in the restricted area. If that seems like a lot, well, it is. Andre Drummond is second at 11, and then Giannis is third, with 9.1 He takes about 30% more shots in the restricted area than #3 in the league! (this stuff is all per game, for whatever reason, from the nba site I couldn't download all the data and do it per minute, which would be more fair to everyone) Just the ability to be able to generate so many shots so close to the rim is nuts. And he's doing it while not being in peak physical condition (lets go with that for phrasing) He takes 15.9 shots per game, 12 in the restricted area and 3.3 in the paint but not the restricted area, with the remaining few coming elsewhere. It's a pretty insane shot distribution [/QUOTE]
