What’s the difference between eFG and TS?

[–] Baconmazing@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Effective Field Goal Percentage; the formula is (FG + 0.5 * 3P) / FGA. This statistic adjusts for the fact that a 3-point field goal is worth one more point than a 2-point field goal. For example, suppose Player A goes 4 for 10 with 2 threes, while Player B goes 5 for 10 with 0 threes. Each player would have 10 points from field goals, and thus would have the same effective field goal percentage (50%).

Which basically means "efficiency scoring the basketball by only field goals" -- no free throws included.

TS includes free throws.

eFG is the ethical bucket getters stat. FT merchants like TS.
