Super excited to be presenting at the @WinSportsData conference next weekend!
Super excited to be presenting at the @WinSportsData conference next weekend!
Quickly took time to highlight the efficiency of high volume shooters who take 3s, 2s, & FTs. These plots look at players who averaged at least 10 fg attempts, at least 4 3pt attempts, and at least 2 ft attempts per game. I split up the conferences for less clutter

777K Followers 321 Following Hey, I’m @jacobryanortiz. Featured on @ESPN, @ESPNRadio, @CBSSports, @FOXSports, @NBA2K, among others. Follow for the latest NBA news, highlights and rumors.I have some exciting news to share with everyone: Last month, I joined @wearebayfc as the Director of Data & Analytics! Really excited to be in an organization that places importance on using data in its processes. Every day has been a learning experience and I’m having a blast!
In evaluating a player's scoring efficiency, you must consider how his offensive role impacts his shot diet.
👇Emma with the info once again
I next looked at the percentage of a team’s rebounds that the top rebounders get. In 3 out of the last 5 seasons it’s become much more common for the top rebounders to grab over 30% of their team’s rebounds
@EmmaRitcey Nice! So how would one explain the sharp increase in 3 point attempts beginning in 2015? Something changed. Wonder if this is when analytics in sport really began to take off? Data availability and technology would be key factors as well I would think.
@EmmaRitcey Great thread Emma! So informative and well put together!
@EmmaRitcey This summary is what I've seen across all levels of basketball too. Also, off-the-dribble 3PT% has increased the more than catch-and-shoot 3PT% but that's because it was much lower to begin with. As Emma says, more athletes are become respected as everyone improves their skill.
This chart is awesome. Puts into perspective how elite the elite are.
Some perspective to show how rare it is to average 20+ PPG. Since 2010, 6 U Sports women's basketball players have averaged at least 25 PPG (~0.097%), 36 players have averaged between 20 and 25 PPG (~0.584%), 289 players have averaged between 15 and 20 PPG (4.69%)
When I made this chart back in November, I was interested to see that the teams with the best process (ones taking away opponents rolls/cuts to the rim, corner 3s, and shooting fouls) weren't necessarily the ones with the lowest PPP allowed (👀Boston, for example).
But, since then, the teams who had the "worst" process at the start of the year have been getting less favorable results (they're all Bottom 11 in PPP allowed on PNR after Nov 13th, including Portland).
Program’s first medal…and we did it at home. That was special!
W 🏀 | What a finish to a great tournament for Queen's Women's Basketball, taking home the bronze medal as the third-best team in the nation!🥉 #ChaGheill | #GoGaelsGo | #LeadTheWay
Hi @OUAsport and @USPORTSca! It’s me again. While I still have your attention, any chance this can be fixed? Thanks!
Hi @USPORTSca 👋🏼 Why does one basketball logo specify gender, while the other doesn’t? Men’s sports are not the default, and should not be treated as such.
Boomerang and short ball screen action together...yes please. Great play from McMaster head coach @coach_pt
MUST SEE - Caroline Livingston hits past the block put up by sister Veronica late in the 1st set. #GoGaelsGo
@EmmaRitcey UPDATE: I have officially retired from Team Bridget as well. #SacrificeForTheGreaterGood #WhoNeedsAnklesAnyways?
Today marks the retirement of two basketball greats. KG from the NBA and @EmmaRitcey from Team Bridget. Both will be missed. #HallOfFame2021
@EmmaRitcey @BdotAdot5 LeBron is lucky he got out of there without a concussion.
