Bball-Index's definitions for the two metrics plotted are below:
OVERALL SHOOTING TALENT
Shooting Talent takes into account a player's shot making, shot quality, and shot creation. These factors help provide context that box score shooting percentages are lacking.
- SHOT MAKING – Each of our Shot Making metrics evaluate player shooting proficiency while accounting for shot quality in the given area.
- SHOT QUALITY – Shot Quality measures how difficult a player's shot attempts are. It accounts for shot location, type, defense, and movement.
- SHOT CREATION – Shot Creation measures how often a player self-generates shot attempts.
STABLE METRICS
These metrics use a similar padding approach as described here (and what we use for LEBRON) to make metric performance more predictive. This is done by infusing the actual sample of performance in the area of question with an expected performance sample.
