As expected, the month of December hasn’t been kind to the Los Angeles Lakers. So far this month, the Lakers have won just three games. As their record gets worse and worse, one of the glaring issues has been their free throw shooting.
For most NBA players, one of the easiest things about the game is shooting free throws. For the Lakers, that is not the case. As a team, the Lakers have all struggled shooting free throws, and this has cost them dearly in close games.
The Lakers are currently the worst free throw shooting team in the league at 68.
