The experimental probability that he would make his next shot.

From the regular season.

He made 35 out of 38 attempts.

The Probabilty P, is the number of shot made divided by the total number of shot.


\begin{gathered} P=(35)/(38) \\ P=0.921 \\ P=0.9 \end{gathered}

The experimental probability that he WOULD make his next attempt in the playoff games is;


P=0.9
