    I bet Tim Hardaway Sr. would be right up there.

    well that's stupid. All great centers would be high on the chuck% list, but rightfully so. That's what they are supposed to do. The whole offense is geared around getting them the ball so they can score. Kareem would probably be #1 of all time, I suppose.

    A good way to measure it would be to eliminate players with less than, say, a 20% USG or something like that.

    So I guess chuck % is the percentage of shots you shoot when you get the ball

    Agreed. But there is not a center on the list. And i do think is a nice stat to look into for non post players. Also it is not bad perse. But if that player on the list is not a pure shooter rebound garbage man or superstar there is a problem imho

    I'd be interested to see the lowest chuck %. I bet boris diaw and tiago splitter are around 0.0001%
