Check this link; I rank the shots in the order they appear. I am ranking them due to factors of shot clock, whether a drive or pass would have been better, and how the defense was positioned. For me; it’s less results oriented then process oriented. Plenty of these misses are shots that looked good to me, and even some he got blocked on were the right idea to me.
The average shot rating according to this extremely subjective metric is 74.66%
I don’t think that’s bad 🤷🏻♂️Thoughts?

The fuck is the point of this lmao
For what it’s worth, I think the actual system Keefe and Co. will be using to teach, test, and evaluate the young players on the team this season is much closer to what you’re doing here than what fans are going to do when they see the box score after every game. I wouldn’t even be surprised if all of Sarr’s evaluations are for defensive-oriented skills until at least the All-Star break.
That said, my sense of this analysis is that while it seems to indicate that based on the flow of the game, Sarr taking 15 shots was not particularly selfish ball, it doesn’t really say much about whether Sarr was mechanically sound and mentally focused enough to make those shots count, or whether a subjectively worse shot launched by a teammate with better current form and focus might have been wiser.
Getting in position to take strong shots is good, but he’s still got to show he’s got more game than this.
At least he kept shooting I guess, it’s an embarrassing stat line even if it’s only summer league but I hope his mentality is strong and stuff like this doesn’t get to him because he’ll have more rough games (hopefully not as bad) fingers crossed this becomes trivia “which hall of famer once went 0-15 in summer league”
