Now that we have proof of comcept we'll see other guys approaching such numbers, already Sabonis and Sengun are iver 21% trending upwards (Domas over 30% as a King), I am sure we'll have many other guys used this way more. Even a mediocre passer like Joel has been over 22% recently and is at 29% this season, in a small sample.
While you make a great point, I don't think any 7' Center anytime soon will be doing this (see below) for 260 games across the regular season plus playoffs, do you?
Jokic is more than DOUBLE #2 Embiid's assist percentage.
And, 250+ games is not a small sample size, at all.
they are not at his level but Domas is over 30 as a King and Sengun is now at 33.
I wouldn't be surprised to see a center get to around 40 in the next decade.
Not as good of a passer and definitely not as a good of an offensive player, but skilled enough and used in a way to allow him to rack up assists.
