The '90% shooting playoff games since the NBA/ABA merger' quiz

Created on May 12, 2025  |  Total tries: 259  |  Average Score: 13.2 out of 44  (30%)  |  Quiz FAQ   

The Indiana Pacers ran roughshod over the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 4 of their second round clash, winning 129-109 with a margin of victory that is massively flattering for the Cavs. Despite an early altercation that ended with Indiana’s Benedict Mathurin getting ejected and flagrant 1 fouls given to Myles Turner and Deandre Hunter, the Pacers followed up a 38-23 first quarter with a 42-16 second quarter to take a 80-39 halftime lead – tying the 2017 Cavaliers for the largest lead at halftime in a playoff game. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. The Pacers got contributions from up and down the roster, but nobody was as efficient as Pascal Siakam, who shot 9-for-10 from the floor to become the first Pacer in this century to score 20 points while shooting 90 percent or better. With that being said, how many of the players since the NBA/ABA merger to shoot at least 90 percent with at least 10 shots taken in an NBA playoff game can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
