Misleading stat. If jordan Poole blocks 1 shot this year he’ll be at 100%

Poole has blocked 6 shots this year and is at 3.6%. I think the problem you are trying to point out is if a player goes in for one possession, blocks a shot and never plays again he'll be at 100%. But I set a parameter that to make this list you need at least 300 minutes played. the fewest shots faced on this list is Joe Ingles with 76 and he has BLK/DFA of 2.6%

Also, it's not Victor who avoids the defense.

It's the offense that avoids Victor.
