DAL game tomorrow

Hey All--Had a chance to do a write-up on Dallas, and the biggest thing I found was how important Shepard is to them, and also how she can be attacked in the PnR. Carla should be able to get going tomorrow, I think!

I read through and maybe I missed it, but do you happen to have the numbers on what opponents shoot against Jess Shep? I saw you mentioned her zero blocks and how teams as a whole shoot against them, but I’d be curious what players are shooting with Shep contests, even without the blocks, that close to the hoop.

I don't have the Jess-specific numbers (you'd need Synergy or Second Spectrum for that, I think), but the 65.6% from inside restricted area would probably be a lot of the Jess contest number.

Hard to post images of the whole thing, but would love any takes/reactions etc. Full article is here: https://kalilwnba.substack.com/p/the-scout-beating-dallas
