Assisted/unassisted is so dumb with seven footers as most of them have high assisted rate. Lauri also is so good with off-ball movement he gets easier looks than some other bigs. If he can cut for a good look and score off the assist its as good or sometimes even better than throwing it into post and back up and pound the ball for seconds. Off ball cuts needs good timing and is not as simple it looks like.
BTW AD has 63% of his 2's assisted. It is more than Lauri.
EDIT: 31/31 AD's threes are assisted. His overall unassisted rate is under 64 bc he does not take lot of threes. Then some know-it-alls around the league make their predictions of Lauri All-star chances based on some god damn assisted-rate. Best three is assisted three whether it is a guard taking them or a big. Lauri being elite from downtown increases his assisted-rate. I bet there is no ig who is under 80% with assisted threes and there is no need for that.
