Edey ain't KAT, Brook Lopez, Bobby Portis, Naz Reid, Joel Embiid, Lauri Markkanen, players who actually get guarded out there. Steph Curry is shooting 39% but there's a reason he's still got a 99 3pt. Klay Thompson is also shooting 39%. The difference between him and Edey ain't Tendencies.

I know why he’s getting open looks in the real NBA. I’m asking if tendencies in 2k contribute to the how often the CPU players will be in those positions (which they should). So if Edey is rated 84 3PT but all of his 3PT tendencies are low, shouldn’t he hit his 39% clip but only shoot maybe 1 a game if not less?

If his volume is low and he’s only taking the outside shots when he’s wide open, then it’s pretty close to his real life percentage. The few times I’ve played the Grizzlies he’s barely been out beyond the paint so it hasn’t been an issue.
