100% Free Throws! 2 Years WITHOUT A MISS! (Crazy NBA Stats)

Kyrie Irving finished this season with a phenomenal statline of 50% from the field, 40% from three and 92% from the free throw line. With that he became only the 9th player in NBA history to accomplish this, and here is the full list of elite shooters headlined by his coach Steve Nash who did it 4 times in his career which is unbelievable.
But as impressive as that is from Kyrie, Tony Snell went even a step further. So let’s check out some wild statistics from this NBA season. What up everybody my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it.
I promise you’ve never seen a player shoot 51% from the field, 57% from downtown, and 100% from the line. Without a single miss. That’s exactly what Snell did this season but if you’re asking yourself why he wasn’t included in that previous list, it’s because of the low attempts- especially when it comes to free throws. Only 11 which is a laughable sample size. But still, since this is the first time in NBA history that a line like this has been achieved, I feel like he deserves some credit. But what’s mind blowing here is that Snell actually had a perfect free throw shooting season last year as well. 32-32. Dude last missed a foul shot on March 12 2019. More than 2 years ago. Are you kidding me?!?
OK, moving on. We saw the Wizards clinch a play-in tournament spot in a crazy season for them.
Starting off 4-13 they found themselves dead last in the eastern conference. And on April 6th, just last month they were 17 and 32 and everyone wrote them off. However in a furious finish, Washington went 17-6 to end the season and with a total of 34 wins and 38 losses, they secured a place in the play-in. Fantastic comeback by Real Deal Beal and Brodie.
Speaking of him, I know I made a video about Russell Westbrook and mentioned this but this is the perfect opportunity to repeat his video game average of 22 points, 11 and a half rebounds, and 11.7 assists. Yet another year with a triple double average, 4th in the last 5 seasons.
This should never be taken for granted.
Also when Russ gets a triple double his teams are 136-45 which is 75%.
Which brings us to a player with a better win percentage when getting a triple double. And that is Draymond Green. This year, Draymond got number 30 in his career, and his record is astonishing. 29-1. That’s 96 and a half percent. So I guess all he has to do in the playoffs is get triple doubles and Golden State wins the title. Sounds simple enough.
And on the topic of the playoffs, here is one painful fact for you 8 or 9 Sacramento fans left out there. The Kings have now missed the playoffs for 15 straight years. That ties the longest post-season drought in NBA history. The Clippers were in a similar spot from 1977 to 1991.
Hopefully the young core of De'aaron Fox, Tyrese Halliburton and company can bring this team back on track where Bibby, Vlade and Peja left it.
Steph Curry has been unstoppable this year, and the fact that he was able to single handedly drag this Golden State team to the play-in is a super human accomplishment in itself, but let me share some more tangible statistics with you.
By winning the scoring title, Curry joins Michael Jordan as the only players in NBA history to lead the league in scoring at age 33 or older. Which yeah, Steph is 33 and I don’t know if it sounds as weird for you guys as it does for me.
Also with 5.3 makes from downtown, he broke his own three point average record of 5.1 further cementing himself as the greatest shooter of all time.
Great three point shooting is part of the reason for the Jazz success as well. Utah ended the year number 1 in makes and number 4 in percentage which is a deadly combination. But they’re on this list because they’re the first team in NBA history to make 10 or more threes in every single game of the season. So let’s see if they can keep up this blazing hot performance throughout the playoffs.
And a nice way to end this list is with Lebron James. The King averaged 25 points per game, which makes it the 17th season of 25 ppg or more. There isn’t a single player close to him in this category, with MJ, KD, Kobe and the mailman all at 12 seasons. SImilarly to Westbrook, once again I gotta remind you to not take greatness for granted.
I’m sure there are a lot more interesting and crazy sounding stats from this season, so let me know in the comments if you got a good one. The playoffs are here folks, things are just now heating up. That’s it for now, subscribe and talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
