Could Tyrese Haliburton Be the Most Untouchable Clutch Player We’ve Seen This Century?

From there, we filtered out any player who has not attempted at least 100 field-goal attempts in the clutch since 2002-03 to avoid any small sample sizes mucking up our analysis. We define “clutch” as the last five minutes of the fourth quarter or overtime when the game is within six points.

We also added a filter of at least 20 3-point attempts. This removes bigs who only take shots in the paint. Players like this tend to have a naturally high eFG% because they almost exclusively take high-value shots. However, those players aren’t as useful in clutch settings because they are dependent on someone else setting them up.
