I’ve often had the vague feeling that this year’s team plays higher “quality” basketball than some of our other successful teams, meaning few turnovers, many assists, strong rebounding, high shooting percentage, etc. So I finally checked at ncaa.com to see if my impression was confirmed by stats. Among all D1 teams, UConn ranks:
1st-assist/turnover margin
3rd-assists per game
5th-FG percentage
81st-FT percentage
9th-rebound margin
34th-3 point percentage
127th (!)-turnover margin
Overall, I’d say, “pretty, pretty, pretty good.”
