Griffin is their other poor FT shooter. He wasn't good last year (59%), and this year has started out 8-15 FT, only 53%. I'm not sure he'll gain a ton, but let's hope he gets to 60%.
You take away the two outliers, Bolon and Griffin, and anyone want to guess what they are shooting from line? 82%. 51-62. So there are two players who have exhibited poor FT shooting, but everyone else is the 80% you want.
Again small sample size but Monty 80%, Meiny 87%, French 100%, Watson 89%, Primmer 100%, Dyer 100%, Saben 75%, Smith 75%.
Now the downside is Bolon and Griff have shot almost a 1/3rd of their total FT's.
My take is the FT shooting is not as dire as once thought.
