Buyout Market: DAL officially signs MKG | Broekhoff waived

On such low volume, you can't draw any conclusions on his shooting ability. 

That's just not true. He was able to make 34% of 47 shots in an NBA game. That tells you SOMETHING. Not nothing.

It tells me that the sample size is incredibly low to draw any definite conclusions about his shooting ability. 47 attempts is pitifully low; it put MKG at 207th in the league that year. 

If you take his entire career, an 8 season sample size, it shows that he is a remarkably sub-par 3pt shooter that had an outlier season if anything. 

Again, not saying that this is the be all end all of MKG as a shooter. It isn't. He has room to grow, and has shown flashes like DFS did 3 years ago. But it will be a mountainous project to get him to be a reliable shooter in today's NBA, and cherry picking stats to build up any expectation of MKG's ability to be an offensive player certainly won't help him. 

Why not praise MKG's incredible defensive ability and show those stats? I know you've posted them once Kamm, so you know just how good of a defender MKG is. And it is a lot easier to find incredible defensive stats of MKG than it is to find commensurate offensive stats.
