LeBron James is currently shooting 86.1% (gasp) inside three feet. If the season ended today, that would place him fourth all-time in a season (min 75 attempts). I know there's a million "LeBron is amazing" posts, but this one really gets me, as he's the only one on this list that is his team's primary ball handler.

  1. Robert Williams 87.9% 2022-23
  2. Damian Jones 87.7% 2021-22
  3. Bol Bol 87.1% 2022-23
  4. LeBron James 86.1% 2023-24
  5. Nerlens Noel 86.1% 2019-20
  6. Andre Iguodala 85.6% 2018-19

“If the season ended today”.

It didn’t, so this entire post is irrelevant and not even remotely interesting. This may be interesting if it were being posted in March. We’re not even a full 30 days into this season ffs. Y’all unreal.

Minimum 75 attempts is absolutely nowhere near enough of a qualifier for this
