WNBA: Paige Bueckers who directs in this statistic shows why she is a recruit

Sip the Kool-Aid basketball fan begins by watching a group eliminatory match with casual matters ago, and leads to diving into the shooting of a player by Statistics Zone at 11 p.m. on Monday. It is difficult not to do it, when its hoop statistics have so many fun statistics to explore, with a fun tool that allows you to easily see how a player ranks among the league in each category.

Curious about Paige Bueckers statistics and really wanting to know where she was sitting in the recruit race of the year, I opened her statistics page. I quickly realized that Bueckers was not only in the recruit conversation of the year, but she should lead it.

In eight games, having missed a few with a concussion, Bueckers is on average 17.4 points per game, but that only makes the surface crack. His 6.1 assists per match as a recruit are also impressive, but a parchment in the really cheesy stuff will show how Paige occurs as a recruit.

You see, Paige is sitting in the 100th centile in a very specific Stat on a league scale – field goals tried and achieved in the range of 12 to 15 feet, because it has 31 attempts and 17 brands in this category. Not only for recruits; For Whole wnba. She also sits in the 99th centile in attempts to go on the field and does, trying 49 this season and by doing 22.

Not all players have a green light to take the mid -range shooting like that, given the level of difficulty. Large players work in the post, and the perimeter is easier to manage when you have space, but the mid -range can be crowded and make efficiency at this distance. The fact that a recruit like Bueckers can not only operate in the mid -range, but also to do it against WNBA players who are larger, stronger and more experienced than her shows how much the young star is really good.

Recruit voters of the year may not be due to a small statistics like this when filling their ballot, but Bueckers has much more to bring to the table. It sits in the 95th centile on the league scale for its assistance / filming ratio with 2.72 in this category, which divides the number of assists in a number of turnover, which tries to put their manipulation and their creation of play in context.

The other two big names in the current recruits of the recruit of the year are Kiki Iriafen and Sonia Lemon, who both play on the mystics of Washington. Although the mystics currently have four victories in Dallas, one this season, victories are generally not a huge factor in this specific price, since the best recruits are generally written to teams that will not win much anyway. Iriafen is currently on average almost a double-double with 13.8 points and 9.3 rebounds per match, while lemon scores 13.4 points for mystics. Iriafen won the prize for the recruit in May after adapting to the physical post of WNBA as a recruit.

While Paige fell out of the conversation during the time she was with her concussion, then a disease, she has played exceptionally since her return. She had her first 35-point game against the Phoenix Mercury, and although her team still fell, 93-80, she also scored almost half of their points.

Anyway, if you are a fan of Bueckers and also a real nerd of big statistics, these small categories are interesting to follow. Bueckers has always been a player beyond his years when it comes to having a holistic and advanced game, often making his mark everywhere on the field. Niche statistical categories like this prove.
