Stephen A. Smith Uncovers the Shocking Truth About Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Everyone’s Getting Wrong
While he does initiate contact at times, he’s legitimately getting fouled, and that’s a byproduct of his scoring versatility.
Gilgeous-Alexander went to the line 14 times in the win, sinking 11 of those attempts.
Contrary to popular belief, he went to the line 8.8 times per game this season, with 7.9 of his league-leading 32.7 points per game coming from the stripe.
That number is slightly up to 9.2 in the playoffs.
He can get points in a hurry, and though he’s not the most proficient 3-point shooter, he’s the kind of player who must be guarded the length of the court.
