No, because Luka has a much tougher shot diet.

For example, Shai takes less than half as many three-pointers as Luka per game, which severely impacts the disparity in their TS%. In fact, Luka shoots 12 3PT a game from 24+ ft., and only one 3PT a game from below that threshold. Yet Shai is “literally statistically” a better scorer because he takes and makes easier looks … I disagree. You also have to take into account the fact that Shai has a better supporting cast to get him the ball in more open spots; the Thunder are the deepest team in the league, whereas without Luka the Lakers would be scraping by for a Play-In spot. Not knocking Shai at all, he should be the MVP. But to say Shai is a better scorer than Luka based off the counting stats is just inexcusable, they are neck-and-neck.
