A quarter way though the season and his free throws are now under 50%. He's going to get hacked soon as teams catch on to how bad he is. I don't think I have ever seen a point guard shoot this poorly from the foul line.

I dunno, since it's mental for him I think getting reps in and slowly taking away the fear factor of it might actually help him

Rajon Rondo shot below 40% from the FT line in the 2014/2015 season. Lol.

Hack a Lonzo?

You can just Shake a Lake... as any of them will do

I'm beginning to feel like 1 of 2 is normal.

No. I think more reps help with %s. We can disagree

Teams know. However, the Lakers effective field goal percentage is only 50% so hacking him isn't really an advantage over letting us shoot.

Even in college he rarely got to the line. That's always been one of his problems: He's doesn't get fouled because he's afraid to take the hole. His game has always been to fire up long 3-pointers or pass the ball.

So he is bad at FT's and 3-pointers?

Ask his daddy, I'm sure it is somehow Luke's fault...!
