Jason Kidd was an unusual player in that he never much cared about scoring. He’s not the only one of course. Some people are specialists. Dennis Rodman basically rebounded and defended. He’d get a rebound, give the ball to a teammate, and get ready to rebound again.
Shane Battier was called the No-Stats All-Star because he could have an immense impact on a game with minimal statistical impact.
Some guys are hired for specific skills and that’s how they make their living in the NBA. Wilt Chamberlain told Mark Eaton that he could make a living blocking shots and Eaton listened.
