Based on my review, so far, Robert Dillingham takes the most shots per minute of playing time of any player for UK under Cal, surpassing Malik Monk in 2016-2017. Dilly is clearly a volume-shooter, no question, in the mould of today's NBA guards.
We have four (4) very good guards this year and it's easy to see the number of shots they take, as we are definitely a guard-oriented team this season. I suppose that makes it easier for a good defensive team to game plan for us and explains how we can really struggle on off-shooting nights, like against South Carolina. In that game, we attempted 62 shots and the four (4) guards took 46 of them (74%), while the other five (5) players attempted only 16 shots (26%). The perimeter game is great when we're running and shooting well, but we definitely need to be able to go inside when match-ups and game situations require it.
Based on the metrics above, as many here have discussed, Reed Sheppard definitely needs to take more shots, as his PTS/FGA is pretty impressive !! His shot volume is too low. Hopefully, Reed will become more inclined to take the shots when he has them. The team really needs for him to do so.
NOTE: PTS/FGA include points scored at the free-throw line.
