Two Arkansas guards — Dusty Hannahs and Daryl Macon — have a shot at finishing as the SEC’s freethrow percentage leader, but they can hardly afford any more misses.

Hannahs is hitting 88.0 percent of his free throws (81 of 92) to rank third in the SEC behind Florida’s Canyon Barry (89.9, 98 of 109), who shoots free throws underhande­d, and Mississipp­i’s Deandre Burnett (89.8, 176 of 196). Auburn’s Danjel Purifoy is fourth at 87.7 percent (71 of 81), while Macon is fifth at 87.3 percent (110 of 126).

In SEC games, Barry is making 92.7 percent of his free throws, and he’s followed in the top five by Florida’s KeVaughn Allen (89.1), Burnett (87.5), Georgia’s Juwan Parker (86.2) and Macon (85.2).
