Zion Williamson blocking shots into the crowd is effectively a turnover

But when you block a shot and the ball goes into the crowd, that's a turnover. You might as well be turning the ball over, Hank. Why doesn't he catch the balls instead of blocking them?

Mathematically, a block out of bounds returns the ball to the offense, so it is less efficient than a block kept in play, though calling it a 'turnover' is literal exaggeration.
