With 77.2%, Giannis Antetokounbo will shoot in 22 games in 2022, claiming the honors of first goalscorer of the regular season and giving his opponents a headache with his shooting accuracy.

Early in his career he was a notable free-kick taker. In the process, his percentages went down, there was a period when no matter how hard he worked, he didn’t get the result he wanted, but now Giannis Antetokounbo is a player that the opponent can’t put on the line anymore because he thinks that he will see him fail, as Chris Paul had said during the 2021 NBA Finals before the Greek freak put down 17/19 in Game 6 en route to his fifties and the title.

Antetokunbo’s goal was to improve his percentage this year from 63.3% in 2019/20 and 68.5% in 2020/21. In seven games in October he shot at 71%, in 13 games in November he dropped to 65.5% but he was confident as he explained in the Sportish interview and he knew he would soon reach the level , which he imagined . In January, he jumped to 77.5% and in 22 games in 2022 he’s at 77.2%, a nearly 80% percentage never seen in a whole in the nine years he’s been in the NBA season has been reached.

John’s got 8.2 accurate shots per 11.3 shots in 51 games this season, he’s making more than ever, he’s playing more than ever, he had 14/14 in the wee hours against the Hornets, he had 17/17 on Jan. 15 against the Raptors, 18/20 on Jan. 8 against the Hornets and now generally feels very comfortable every time opponents will or will not send him to the line. This year he scores 1.7 points more than last year, taking him up from 28.1 to 29.4 and claiming the award for top scorer of the season.
