Embiid gets 3.4 FTs a game on 8.6 drives a game.

SGA gets 3.0 FTs a game on 21 drives a game.

What constitutes a drive? Is it a shot attempt (doubt it cuz that'd be wild)? Cuz if he's getting fouled but on the ground or just running a pick and roll but his initial first steps count as driving but he immediately dumps it off, idk how to interpret this

its also because they count drives on uncontested fast breaks vs in the half court.
