That´s why it is always important to consider volume and efficiency. Can a player that is really efficient in the 15ppg range increase the volume to 25ppg without tanking the efficiency.
For all the well deserved credit. Brunsons TS% is not close to last seasons level. Nearly 5% worse. His midrange percentage was better. His 3-point percentage was a lot better.
In the 10 games without Luka recently, JB shot the ball 16 times a game while filling the Luka role. Luka shoots it 21 times per game this year. Also while filling the Luka role, JB shot 51%/38%/78%.
I think it is reasonable to ask Luka to shoot ~17 FGA and to try to get JB up to ~14 FGA.
