Luka is better than SGA at every single aspect of the game of basketball outside of perimeter defense and free throw percentage. SGA is a foul merchant, averaging most PPG off free throws.

Take away every free throw in the NBA and SGA’s scoring goes from 2nd to 7th in the league.

So many lies. Luka has taken more free throws than SGA every year they've been in the league. Embiid averages the most PPG off free throws. And Shai averages 7.6 ftm per game compared to 6.8 for Luka. Not even a one point difference.

Luka turns the ball over twice as much as Shai and Shai has a better fg%.

Also Shai leads the NBA in steals, he's a much better defensive player than Luka.

No it goes from 4th to 5th. Scary that your post where everything you said is wrong got so many upvotes. Thought some of y'all might know ball around here but I guess not.

I love when people post fake stats. You wanna see the real stats? And does this make Doncic a FT “merchant”?

Games/FT’s attempted/avg per game

Luka: 70 / 608 / 8.69 FT’s per game
SGA: 75 / 649 / 8.65 FT’s per game

What say you now? SGA looked way better than Luka last night too. Luka got the Dorture Chamber

And to add to those FT stats.

Luka took 744 3pt attempts
SGA took 269 3pt attempts

Now, isn’t it fair to assume when you drive the ball more you get fouled more? Less players are fouled on 3 point tried than 2.

Give me a break with this merchant crap, Luka is a whiner every game he plays. He’s worse than Russ ever was.
