Seems like most heat check shots miss. Any data on this?

Most data shows that the "hot hand" is a myth

Taking it one step further, if the "heat check" is a low %age shot....Bad idea.

So I asked Perplexity: Pretty much supports heat check shots are not smart.

Would need a clear definition of heat check to have any data.

Usually means a player thinks he's hot and subsequently takes more difficult shot.

Usually the term is used after a player misses a shot after making a few
