    Didn't watch the game.

    Please tell me he injured himself again and won't play against the Spurs on Saturday.

    If not, anyone want to buy two tickets to that game? Section 107 Row 20

    Is that why Jabari has shot 21% from 3 since KPJ has been out ....

    Not saying KPJ is some god tier player but let's just think about this for a second. Those players on that tweet play what position and what position does KPJ play? Then you post stats about unguarded catch-and-shoot 3's?

    I don’t think you’re reading that correctly. It’s showing who has taken the most “unguarded” catch-and-shoot shots, not who is the best at them.

    He's not on there because he doesn't get very many... you know, because he'd be relying on others to create those attempts for him and his teammates are trash

    This season he's shooting 42.2% with an eFG% of 62.2% on those attempts... oh and those aren't "unguarded" that's his total for all catch and shoot 3 attempts. So yeah, pretty elite

    KPJ can KPGo as far as I’m concerned.

    no sh*t u don’t see him, he’s missed 21 games and doesn’t take that many catch and shoot threes to begin with…

    So why would we find him on a short list of the most unguarded catch and shoot threes?

    lol at these SOFs

    You linked a list that is sorted by raw attempts for the entire season, and you're wondering why KPJ isn't on the list? Did you think that maybe it's because he's missed like 20 games? Use your critical thinking skills here man.

    I think you misunderstood what the question was asking. It said, MOST unguarded catch and shoot attempts + EFG% on those attempts.

    KPJ wouldn't be in that category, because he is more on the ball, so he would have less unguarded attempts. If you look at those players, all of them play off the ball.

    KPj has 62.5% efg%. not bad at all. just a reminder that he could actually have been developed very differently.
