HELLNAH leaders

This is a cool stat—how often do you see a player dribble into the paint, only to turn around because they’re literally forced to by the big man rotating and being an intimidating presence?

This isn’t the Steve Nash move of toeing the baseline, where Nash never stopped his dribble and was trying to switch baselines. This is when a player drives in, sees a big man, retreats quickly, and doesn’t attempt a pass or shot because of the intimidation.

It’s no surprise that Wemby is the leader in this.
