None are charges? Does it say how he’s drawing them? Off screens?
i looked into this more and now i'm dubious on the stat.nba.com numbers for 'charges drawn' in their hustle stats. i had assumed that charges were only counted for offensive fouls where the defensive player is stationary. so this drawn foul by lu dort was not counted as a charge drawn:

but this one drawn by kenrich williams was:

and this textbook charge by roby... was not counted as one:

so whatever. the point about dort's offensive foul drawing still stands.
