Where are you getting this from?

It's widely known that SGA leads the league in drives this season and last season.

This season SGA averages 24 drives per game. Zion at 16.5


Pull up shots are a tracked stat. You can look them up on NBA.com if you like. LINK

A Pull up shot is a drive that ends in a jump shot. Which SGA does a ton of. You are far less likely to get fouled doing that on a drive than taking it to the cup. Although SGA does still get a ton of touch calls on his pull ups.

Pull up shots off of drives, not drives. Gotcha


And yea, that speaks to your point about the difference in shots at the rim vs pull up jumpers. Zion is certainly taking more of a beating while SGA is just playing the game of knowing how to get calls.
