The latest NBA HoopGrids was released on Nov. 23. The popular basketball trivia remains a favorite among fans even though the 2023-24 NBA season is almost a month old.
Thursday's puzzle has three special categories: a player who averaged 15 or more points in a season, shot 50.0% or lower from the free throw line in a season and was named an All-Star.
On that note, let's take a look at the clues for the Nov. 23rd edition of the NBA HoopGrids:
- Grid 1: Player who played for the Minnesota Timberwolves and averaged 15 or more points in a season
- Grid 2: Player who played for the Minnesota Timberwolves and shot under 50.0% from the free throw line in a season
- Grid 3: Player who played for the Minnesota Timberwolves and was named an All-Star
- Grid 4: Player who played for the San Antonio Spurs and averaged 15 or more points in a season
- Grid 5: Player who played for the San Antonio Spurs and shot under 50.0% from the free throw line in a season
- Grid 6: Player who played for the San Antonio Spurs and was named an All-Star
- Grid 7: Player who played for the Brooklyn Nets and averaged 15 or more points in a season
- Grid 8: Player who played for the Brooklyn Nets and shot under 50.0% from the free throw line in a season
- Grid 9: Player who played for the Brooklyn Nets and was named an All-Star
For Thursday's NBA HoopGrids, let's take a closer look at grids 2 and 5: which players shot under 50.0% from the free throw line have also played for the Minnesota Timberwolves and San Antonio Spurs?
Rudy Gobert is one of the worst shooting big men in the NBA but has improved since his rookie season. Gobert shot 49.2% as a rookie with the Utah Jazz but has been shooting in the 60s for most of his career. He's an answer for Grid No. 2 because he plays for the Timberwolves.
Meanwhile, Jakob Poeltl has shot under 50.0% from the charity stripe twice. It happened when he was with the Spurs in 2020 and 2022. Poeltl now plays for the Toronto Raptors after San Antonio traded him at last season's deadline.
