Tony Snell is officially the first player in NBA history to have a 50/50/100 season (min 100 attempts).

50.9 FG%
56.9 3P%
100 FT%


Dude is a walking record-breaker



Before y’all ask he played 22 minutes per game this year.

Can't believe that guy carved out an NBA career.

He literally couldn't play for crap in Chicago when they had Butler, Joakim Noah, and Thibs.

Makes me wonder why he doesn’t shoot more

I thought he was pretty decent in Chicago

Because he’s literally only capable of doing one thing. Making an uncontested 3.

Just looked up his stats, if you take out his 4-14 start on threes in Jan, he is 58-95 through the rest of the year

I know this is really low volume, but that is still impressive.

He averaged like 2.4 3PA a game. It’s not THAT slow of volume. And 50%+ against air is impressive.

It’s just that he averages 1 other shot a game.

How in the hell has he only attempted 11 free throws while playing 22 minutes a game? Even if one is a super passive offensive player, it seems like just when your team is in the bonus there would be enough loose ball type of fouls that would equate to getting to the line more than that.

Like I said, he quite literally just stands there and shoots when he gets open

He averages 3.6 shots a game and 2.3 of them are 3 pointers. I doubt He’s taking many shots with a hand in his face or anyone close enough to to foul him.

He’s also probably not getting many
Minutes at the end of games when they’re in the bonus and getting fouled.
