Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the midrange king. 👑 In a league obsessed with threes, SGA is living in the midrange. And he’s absolutely cooking there. The inspiration is obvious. Shai has never hidden who he studied growing up: 🏀 Michael Jordan 🏀 Kobe Bryant 🏀 Allen Iverson Three legends who made a living in the in-between area of the floor. Career shooting: 🔸 SGA: 50.7% FG / 35.9% from three 🔸Jordan: 49.7% FG / 32.7% from three 🔸Kobe: 44.7% FG / 32.9% from three 🔸Iverson: 42.5% FG / 31.3% from three In other words, Shai is basically running an old-school scoring style with modern efficiency. Yeah, he goes to the FT line a lot, but he’s an even bigger threat from midrange.
