Advanced statistics in basketball

Advanced statistics (also known as analytics or APBRmetrics) in basketball refers to the analysis of basketball statistics using objective evidence.[1] APBRmetrics takes its name from the acronym APBR, which stands for the Association for Professional Basketball Research.[2]

According to The Sporting News, the APBRmetrics message board was "the birthplace of basketball analytics".[3]

Advanced basketball statistics include effective field goal percentage (eFG%), true shooting percentage (TS%), (on-court/off-court) plus–minus, adjusted plus-minus (APM), real plus/minus (RPM), player efficiency rating (PER), offense efficiency rating, offensive rating, defensive rating, similarity score, tendex, and player tracking.[4]

A more complete explanation of basketball analytics is available in "A Starting Point for Analyzing Basketball Statistics" in the Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports.[5]
