Couple reasons DeRozan's FG% was higher his 2nd year (and 1st although he wasn't a feature player that year).
- Team played a faster paced offense (11th in the league)
- Wasn't the first option on offense
- As a result of the faster pace offense more baskets came in transition
- More transition baskets = less mid-range, shot < 50% of his shots from mid-range (10-23ft) compared to nearly 60% now
- 59% of his baskets were assisted compared to 45% now
