I will again be doing a report after each game this season and a summary report at the end of each month. (I’ve eliminated some stats from previous years to streamline this post.) This is limited to recruited scholarship players only.
Net Points
(points + rebounds + assists + steals + blocks minus missed field goals and free throws, turnovers and personal fouls)
Average net points/40 by position, (based on averaging 20+ minutes per game), since the 1980-81 season:
Centers 18.6; Power Forwards: 18.4; Small Forwards: 16.1, Shooting Guards: 13.3; Point Guards: 13.5
Benny Williams +23NP in 38 minutes = +212NP in 670 minutes = +12.NP/40 for season
Jesse Edwards +19NP in 34 minutes = +654NP in 1040 minutes = +25.2NP/40 for season
Quadir Copeland +12NP in 16 minutes = +30NP in 186 minutes = +6.5NP/40 for season
Chris Bell +10NP in 24 minutes = +103NP in 600 minutes = +6.9NP/40 for season
Joe Girard +8NP in 39 minutes = +352NP in 1107 minutes = +12.7NP/40 for season
Judah Mintz +7NP in 36 minutes = +386NP in 1071 minutes = +14.4NP/40 for season
Maliq Brown +1NP in 4 minutes = +267NP in 584 minutes = +18.3NP/40 for season
Mounir Hima 0NP in 4 minutes = +51NP in 199 minutes = +10.3NP/40 for season
Symir Torrence -1NP in 4 minutes = +102NP in 328 minutes = +12.4NP/40 for season
DNP coach’s decision
John Bol Ajak 0NP in 0 minutes = +34NP in 122 minutes = +11.1NP/40 for season
Justin Taylor 0NP in 0 minutes = +113NP in 485 minutes = +9.3NP/40 for season

Peter Carey 0NP in 0 minutes = -2NP in 20 minutes = -4.0NP/40 for season

Offensive Dude of the Game, (O-Dog)
(Points plus assists)
Judah Mintz 18 points and 7 assists = 25
Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goal and free throw attempts)
Benny Williams 18 points – 7mfg – 0mft = +25
Scoring Efficiency
(Percentage of points scored divided by points they would have scored if they made every shot- minimum 10 possible points)
Jesse Edwards 12 points of 19 = 63.2%

Joe Girard 39 minutes
TEAM STATS
Possession
Rebounding
(Add each team’s offensive rebounds to their opponent’s defensive rebounds. Then figure the offensive rebounds as a percentage of that)
We rebounded 12 of our 41 misses = 29.3%
They rebounded 9 of their 34 misses = 26.5%
Unsettled Situations
[Second Chance Points+ Points off Turnovers] divided by [Offensive Rebounds + Opposition Turnovers)
We had 27 points in 26 unsettled situations = 1.038 points/situation
They had 18 points in 21 unsettled situations = 0.857 points/situation
Manufactured Possessions
(One teams rebounds + the other team’s turnovers)
We had 37 + 14 = 51
They had 38 + 12 = 50
Scoring
Shooting
(Shots made and attempted and the percentage for two point goal attempts, three point attempts and free throws)
We were 15 for 47 on twos, (31.9%), 10 for 17 on threes (58.8%) and 14 for 17 on frees (82.4%)
They were 19 for 34 on twos, (55.9%), 9 for 28 on threes (32.1%) and 12 for 12 on frees (100.0%)
Points
(PIP= points in the paint, “The Inner Sanctum”
POP = points outside the paint, which is total points – PIP -free throws made
OL= points from “The Outer Limits” (three point shots)
TZ= “Twilight Zone”, which is POP – TREY, (two point jumpers from outside the paint)
FT = Free Throws
We had 24 PIP, 36 POP, 30 OL, 6 TZ, 14 FT
They had 36 PIP, 29 POP, 27 OL, 2 TZ, 12 FT
Fast Break Percentage
(FBP/(defensive rebounds + blocks + steals)
We scored 10 FBP in 44 opportunities (22.7%)
They scored 21 FBP in 39 opportunities (53.8%)
First Chance/Second Chance
(FCP is First Chance Points, which is total points - second chance points – fast break points – free throws made. SCP is second chance points.)
We had 35 FCP and 15 SCP
They had 42 FCP and 2 SCP
Starters/Bench
(Total points – bench points = starters points)
Our starters scored 68 points and our bench scored 6 points.
Their starters scored 74 points and their bench scored 3 points.
Efficiency
Assists
(The percentage of a team’s baskets that were assisted)
We assisted 16 of our 25 field goals = 64.0%
They assisted 18 of their 28 field goals = 64.3%
Team Offensive Possession Efficiency
(Possessions: Field goals attempted - offensive rebounds + turnovers + 47.5% of free throws attempted. Efficiency is total points divided by possessions)
We scored 74 points in 70 possessions = 1.057 points/ possession
They scored 77 points in 73 possessions = 1.055 points/possession
It was a 143-possession game.
If we just use FGA + (47.5% FTA) and thus count an offensive rebound as an additional possession and a turnover as a lost possession:
We scored 74 points in 70 possessions = 1.057 points/ possession
They scored 77 points in 68 possessions = 1.132 points/possession
Team Shooting Efficiency
(Points minus missed field goals and free throws)
We scored 74 points, missed 39 field goals and missed 3 free throws = net +32
They scored 77 points, missed 34 field goals and missed 0 free throws = net +43
(Points scored divided by potential points scored if we’d made every shot)
We scored 74 on 47 two-point attempts, 17 three-point attempts and 17 free throw attempts = 74 of a possible 162 points = 45.7% of possible points scored.
They scored 77 on 34 two-point attempts, 28 three-point attempts and 12 free throw attempts = 77 of a possible 164 points = 47.0% of possible points scored.
Fouls
(Most fouls are called on two point shot attempts.)
We attempted 47 two-point shots and were fouled 17 times = 2.76
They attempted 34 two-point shots and were fouled 15 times = 2.27
Comments:
- This was a game decided inside the arc. We out-shot the Deacons from outside of it, 10/17 vs. 9/28. It was the first time since the North Carolina game six weeks ago where we hit more treys than the other guys. What killed us is that we missed 32 of 47 two points shots. And many of them were just that – misses: blown lay-ups misguided alley oops and clanged short jumpers. We shot 32% to Wake’s 56%.
- We were very good from the line, 14 for 17 but Wake was perfect, 12 for 12. Our three misses were the margin of defeat.
- They also beat us down court for 21 fast break points to our 10. I love Judah but he prefers to dribble the ball downcourt, rather than pass it. (Will I get to complain about that next year?)
- Another amazing reversal of the regular season trends: we won the boards, 37-35 and had 12 offensive rebounds to 9, leading, incredibly to 15 second chance points to just 2.
