Great to see even if a little misleading. Bigs have to guard guys shooting inside (much higher avg %)...Dunn guards a lot of guys shooting 3s...where avg is a lot lower.
He's obviously an awesome defender though and probably the best in the draft, though I can't say I've watched others much.

His 5.2 percent foul rate is 0th percentile in the league lol

And what about comparing him to other rookies?
We are talking about a defensive minded player who excels being aggressive on that side of the court so all in all he's not fouling too much for a rookie.
He averages 2.3 fouls playing over 18 minutes per game.
4.5 fouls per 36 minutes.
Risacher 3.2 fouls/per 36.
Zach Edey 4.7 fouls per 36.
He contests EVERY shot, doesn't matter if it's a 3p shot or at the rim. That's an skill. A nice skill in his arsenal.

I was just trying to answer the original question. I love his defense and ability to contest shots.
He also fouls a lot. To your point, he is fouling the 5th most per 100 possessions among rookies (min. 15 games).
Adem Bona: 8.1
Donovan Clingan: 8.0
Jaylon Tyson: 7.4
Pelle Larson: 6.8
Ryan Dunn: 5.9
Zach Edey: 5.9

10.5 points
5.4 rebounds
1.3 assists
0.4 steals
1.0 blocks
Shooting 52/34/75
26.4 minutes per game. Only 1 TO in these last 8 games!
Game after game we are verifying that he is the steal of this year's draft.

But he doesn't!
And he's such a injection of youth, athleticism, effort, and defensive chops that we sorely need. Dude is a dawg.
Future is bright for the young man.
