"For the Toronto Raptors last season, wrong turns were in many ways responsible for a variety of offensive weaknesses. Literally, turned backs and poor spins led to a second-last ranking in field-goal percentage on drives, at just 46.3 percent."
"Scottie Barnes was indicative of Toronto's limitations while driving. Among players averaging at least 10 drives per game, Barnes ranked 55th in field-goal percentage, at 46.9 percent, indicating a need for improvement in his driving technique."
"Despite his immaculate touch, Barnes was a below-average finisher from the short midrange last season. His drives showed a tendency to slow down, allowing defenses to recover and negate advantages."
"In contrast, Giannis Antetokounmpo has been the role model for success while driving, consistently ranking in the top three in the league with efficiency above 60 percent on those shots."
