Ben Wallace and Shaquille O'Neal are both on this list.
Who's No. 1?

#2 Andre Drummond

Detroit Pistons v Charlotte Hornets
Andre Drummond

Career: 898-2146 (41.8%)

At least guys like Howard, Bill Russell, Chamberlain and Jordan brought another aspect of their game, which allowed their teams to make-do with their poor free-throw shooting. When it comes to doing that, Andre Drummond is still finding his place.

His shooting has been TERRIBLE. Yes, you read that word in all caps.

Currently, in his sixth season, Drummond has shot free throws at under 40% four times. The second season of his career he shot 41.8%, not far off from 40%. This season, his free-throw shooting has taken a huge jump - 61.2%, however, at the start of the 2017-18 season, through his first 10 games, he shot a spectacular 75% but over the course of the current campaign, there was a regression to the mean.

It was only this current season's jump that helped Drummond escape the No. 1 spot on this list. Even with this huge improvement this season, he's only 0.4% better than the next player.
