His % right now are crazy. Have there been any articles or pods with actual data or observations on his form and likelihood of significant improvement over past years continuing this season? Thanks!
Sell high on DJ’s FT%. History has shown that he will not continue 87% free throw consistently. I’d imagine he will taper off similar to Drummond last year, and maybe he’ll even settle in the 60% range (would be a career high). However, he would be the first player in the history of the NBA to jump up almost 30% in FT year over year. I’m not buying it.
I appreciate you taking to the time to respond.
I am looking to see if anyone has intel besides the obvious sell-high takes. 87% isn't realistic for but a few guys, but has anyone seen team writers or fantasy guys breaking down his stroke to see if there are any significant changes to warrant a sustained increase even if it wont obviously stay 87%?
Nothing too obvious -- seems like mostly a confidence thing. As soon as he misses a couple, look out for more.
Almost always between the ears with this stuff.
He will end the season with career-high averages, which could still mean .600
