How is this guy so allergic to getting to the line? He is shooting 0.3 FT attempts a game? How is a guy so big playing the most physical position not end up at line at all?

To this point the Blazers haven't played through Ayton in the post. He has been playing well though overall. Main factor is likely that all of our guards die before getting a rapport going with him. Scoot, Simons, and Brogdon all out so we are playing a 2 way guy and THE GOAT Skylar Mays.

The Blazers offense is currently built around an unstoppable combination of putrid 3 point shooting and Jerami Grant isos so not a lot of post offense for Ayton.

It’s still weird. He’s 16th in the NBA in paint touches, ahead of Embiid, Porzingis, and Zion. For him to have attempted 3 free throws in 9 games as a centre is comical.
