When I see stats like this my brain gets split between “he’s so good people can’t defend him without fouling” and “he gets a favorable whistle and it inflates how good he looks.”

I can’t wait for a future where AI is good enough to be taught what a foul is and isn’t so it can do an analysis of game film to tell us who has the highest over call and under call rates in the NBA. It’s too much work for me to actually watch the games and form an opinion, after all.
