My shooting guard is one the best players on my team, yet he still fails to take a lot of shots! Always ranks at the bottom in fg attempted!

Anyone knows a good reason for that ?
What's something to try to get the ball to him more often?

For ref, I play outside oriented offense

In the last 3 games started, your SG has ranked first, equal second and second for fg attempts. He is also 4th overall for fg attempted this season, so I'm not sure where your observation is coming from?


That said, if he is your best jump shooter, he will take significantly more shots than anyone on your team if you play Patient.

Use tactics that take advantage of his skills like Motion, RNG, Outside ISO or patient. Also make sure you have players with good passing around him so that they can get the ball to your SG in good scoring areas. YOu can also consider his matchup during the game, if you feel like he's going up against a good defender try switching his position to something else. The game engine takes advantage of mismatches so use this to match your player with weaker defenders (e.g. players with poor game shape for example tend to foul more and give up more points).
