My coworker brought this up today and I thought he was misreading his statline somehow. Looked at his stat page, and yeah, it really is only five on the year. I already knew he wasn't one to draw fouls but you'd think you'd at least accidentally draw one shooting foul a game as a starter.

To his credit, he's hit all five.

But he doesn’t want to use his insane physical gifts to dunk and draw contact, so he can’t be a rim-runner either.

It’s on purpose. He doesn’t want to shoot FTs.

He has terrible mental fortitude

You can’t be a great player without being able to draw fouls.
