Possibly a silly question, but does this also correspond to the expected FT% of the player once they are on your roster? (i.e. -- someone on my roster who is a B+ should, over enough games, gravitate to 78.1-81.0%)

I would expect so, I'll look at my teams and see how strong the correspondence is, but it is not looking like it so far though... but it's pretty close.

work in progress but I'm just seeing how it compares to the chart very few people are exactly in their range most are under/over, I highlighted people with more than 75 FTA and didn't bother anyone under 25.

I've always assumed it folds directly over, but have never bothered to keep data over a long period of time to see if it does. But I seem to recall that it was said once that fatigue impacts FT ability in-game, and then we had that terrible and thankfully short-lived manipulation where a kid would (seemingly) automatically miss free throws if he was shooting them too out of the norm for his rating.

I know on my current rosters I have guys both high and low of their numbers by full letter grades or more, so it appears like it probably shakes out to the norm, but was curious if anyone had actually checked it out recently since it seems there's more to FT shooting in the engine than just Player X shoots at 75.4 percent, so roll the dice and see he misses on 755+.
