The Golden State Warriors were able to withstand a 43-point barrage from Luka Doncic and the Los Angeles Lakers to win their season opener 119-109, thanks in large part to 31 points from Jimmy Butler.
Butler scored more than half of his points on a perfect 16-for-16 shooting from the free throw line, getting him off to a good start for his bet with Draymond Green that he’ll have a higher free throw percentage this year than teammate Steph Curry. Unfortunately for Butler, Curry was also a perfect 8-for-8 and currently holds the all-time record for free throw percentage at 91.2 compared to Butler’s 84.4.
After the Warriors win, Butler did admit that it was “probably a bad bet,” but Warriors fans will take it if it means the pair are perfect from the charity stripe each night.
Which brings us to today’s quiz. While Curry is the best free throw shooter of all-time, Butler has been no slouch in his career, sitting in 18th-place on the NBA’s active free throw percentage leaders list. With that being said, can you name the active NBA players to shoot at least 84 percent from the free throw line with a minimum of 1,200 attempts?
Good luck!
