Throughout NBA history, the best of the best emerge in the most important moments. Players are made and players are broken in the clutch.
This season, Jalen Johnson has begun to cement himself as one of the former category. He's been absolutely killer in the 4th quarter for an Atlanta Hawks team that suddenly finds itself rolling at just the right time.
Johnson currently ranks 9th-best in the NBA in 4th-quarter field goal percentage, with an impressive even 50.0% from the floor in the 4th quarter (minimum of 200 FGA). He trails names such as De'Aaron Fox, Jamal Murray, Victor Wembanyama, and Kevin Durant only marginally, with 1st-ranked Fox averaging only slightly better efficiency in the 4th at 51.
