Despite having a 39.8 FG%, Damian Lillard's TS% is currently over 60% (alien.top)

Just thought this was an interesting stat

Basically most of Dame's attempts are either 3s or free throws so he's making the most of every bucket lol

A big reason for his low FG% is because most of his shots are threes. He’s attempting 16.3 FG per game and 8.7 of those are threes. He’s also shooting a career worst 31% from three right now which obviously will improve as the season goes on.

So what you're saying is that the reason his FG% is so low is because he's not shooting well.

That’s what I am saying clearly. Did you read the first two sentences of my comment? I wasn’t trying to be captain obvious. His FG% has been lower his entire career because most of his attemps are threes. It’s just more extreme because he’s having a bad stretch from three this year.
