Kobe Sanders Is Posting a 73.8% True Shooting Mark Over 10 Games

Over his last 10 games, Sanders is shooting far more efficiently than he has all season.

73.8%true shooting, last 10 games · last season, Apr 12Kobe Sanders

Kobe Sanders' true shooting percentage over his last 10 games sits at 73.8%, through the Clippers' game on April 12, 2026. That mark is 14.1 points above his 59.7% true shooting mark for the 2025-26 season as a whole. True shooting blends two-point shots, three-point shots and free throws into one rate, so it measures scoring efficiency rather than raw volume.

Sanders is not a high-volume scorer. He is averaging 7.3 points in 19.9 minutes per game across 68 games this season. A jump like this in a role that small can move fast, in either direction, because a handful of makes or misses shifts the percentage more than it would for a player with a heavier workload.

For the surge to hold, Sanders would need to keep hitting shots at this rate as the sample grows past 10 games. If his shot selection and makes regress toward his season averages, the true shooting number will drift back down toward 59.7%. If he sustains it over more games, the season figure itself will start to climb.

Right now, the last 10 games stand on their own line, separate from the season total. The next several outings for the Clippers will show whether this is an extended stretch of good shooting or the start of a real change in how efficiently Sanders scores.
