Based on the numbers the only bigman that should post up as much as possible is Embiid. And maybe Jokic because playmaking bigs like him obviously create open looks for teammates with post ups.
For comparisation:
2018 KP: 0.96 PPP
2020 KP: 0.59 PPP
2018 Embiid: 0.97PPP
2020 Embiid: 1.15 PPP
2018 AD 0.97 PPP
2020 AD 0.99 PPP
2018 Jokic: 0.93 PPP
2020 Jokic: 0.92 PPP
2018 Towns: 1.02 PPP
2020 Towns: 0.93 PPP
For comparisation:
Luka in the pick and roll 1.10 PPP
Luka iso 1.03 PPP
fun note:
Luka post up 1.33 PPP (RC mentioned him in the interview. Really low volume and only against smaller guards but maybe more post ups for Luka are an option)
