Imagine a player that can score 100% on 5 attempts per day but 0% for anything above. How valuable would they be in the NBA? How would teams react? (alien.top)

Would the player be used in the first minutes or the last minutes of the game? If the other teams find out, they might foul that player to limit the attempts to free throws - how would the player be protected from that? What would be the value of a player like that on the market place? How would this player rank all time with potentially (if not fouled, etc.) a 15ppg average?

Wouldn't touch all time, but his teams would win. Automatic 15 pts? Start him, let him chuck for 8 minutes, sit him. EZ.

Why is this question asked so damn much? Is this really that interesting of a topic that so many people have the same line of questioning

We had this same question about someone only making 1 shot at a 100% rate and we said that was even valuable.

Imagine the last couple minutes of every game you have a guaranteed 15 points (assuming he can shoot 3's). Throw him in in every clutch situation and you practically win every close game.

Inject Davis Bertans with whatever serum causes this and we're gucci. Give him 5 minutes in the 2nd quarter to pop off during a lull.

You missed the offseason by a week.
