Crawford | A closer look: 4 key statistics in Louisvilles 10-game winning shop | U of l Sports

Louisville, Ky. (WDRB) – There is no review for Pat Kelsey and Louisville. Reporters could be awarded if they tried to ask questions to a trainer whose team had little resistance to ward off an average of 13 points per game.

Louisville begins against Georgia Tech on Saturday in Atlanta (3:45 p.m., CW) and begins a number of games against four opponents who are 6-32 in the ACC game and have only won one of their last 27 games.

After Georgia Tech, the Boston College (six-game loss strip), Miami (10-game defeat) and. NC State (five game loss strips) does not inspire much fear.

Kelsey was asked as politely as possible what concerns he could play against opponents who are not accepted.

“Tomorrow we have a very hard opponent at Georgia Tech, extremely dangerous,” said Kelsey. “And they play very well at home and we know that we have cut out our work for ourselves. Our boys really dealt with the process of preparing for them … I’m concerned about one game. I know. Not even who we play afterwards.

The US Olympic team does not go through this door.

Anyway, you get the picture. And it is not an action. The only way to be successful is to concentrate on the task in front of them, whether it is a game, possession, a time overrun, whatever.

However, those of us don’t have to do that much. Sometimes I think it is instructive to secure and look at what happened a little. And how it happened and why.

That is why we will turn to some statistics from CBBanalytics.com to paint a picture of the Louisville basketball team in the last 10 games.

Selection

Louisville’s shooting diagram in the last 10 games does not differ significantly from his shooting diagram for the entire season. It is a picture of modern basketball. You will see a lot of shots from three -point range and a lot of shots on the edge. You will see some shots on the trail.

And you can count on your hands and feet (20 shots in 10 games), which were in front of the trail with a middle class.

Louisville was not a particularly good shooting team this season (although it was better during the 10-game victory).

But what it was particularly good is to take the recordings that it wants to do. If it gets a good volume of three or on the edge and can get to the foul line, the crime works.

“We are hunting great,” said Kelsey about his team’s choice of shooting. “It’s not just about these or two or two, but about great looks.”

This is what a disciplined crime looks like in 2025. A shooting card with shots in the lane and shots outside the three -point line and not much in between.

In the following, the Louisville shooting diagram looked like last season. The shots came from everywhere. Now there is more than one way of leading a crime. But in general, when you see a shooting diagram that has no shape, it generally leaves an offensive that has no shape – although it occasionally shows you an excellent crime that is difficult to scot and defend.

Sit in the corner

The three pointer of the corner is Nirvana in modern college (and pro-) basketball. It has a shorter length. Players like to shoot it. And they make it with a higher percentage than any other shot outside the arch.

The corner riding is therefore “great look” Louisville will hunt on every opportunity. During his winning streak, Louisville made 14% of his shots out of the corner beyond the arch. This percentage is the highest three percent of the nation during this time.

During the series, the cards shoot 43% on the corner. Khani Rooths is 60%in these recordings, Reyne Smith is 56%, Terrence Edwards if 46.7%and Chucky Hepburn 41.7%.

If you are looking for Louisville’s best shooters on the edge, James Scott has made 78.% of his shots 4 ½ foot in the last 10 games, and Hepburn has made 70.6%.

Sit down time

Louisville has achieved an average of 1.01 points per chance of possessions in the last 10 games, which occupies the 21st place in the nation. It seems difficult to imagine that 20 teams from timeouts got better than Louisville, but that’s the status. In the last five games, Louisvilles took third place outside of the break in third place.

(Note: This is not a percentage of the results directly from the time. I do not have the analytics service that provides this information.)

Regardless of the rank, Louisville’s effectiveness from timeouts has not been unnoticed.

For the entire season, Louisville has an average of 1.04 nationwide in points per chance of timeouts, good for the 31st nationwide. And 59% of the Louisville Education were three -point attempts, good for second place at the national level.

How is this compared to the past few years? Louisville took 153th place in this category last season and 209 in the season.

Take a look at lists

Louisvilles most frequently used was also statistically the best. What is nice. But it is not always something that you can take a matter of course at any level of basketball.

The installation of Hepburn, Smith, Hadley, Edwards and Scott had a plus minus of Plus-99 in the last 10 games. It has registered more than twice as many minutes as any other list.

The interesting thing about Louisville’s team is that there are four further lists plus 83 or higher during this 10-game series. The installation of Hepburn, Smith, Edwards, Hadley and Traore War Plus-93 and this list has the highest overall rating of another group. It also has the highest effective field target percentage.

The best defensive set -up of evaluation is a group that includes Hepburn, Smith, Edwards, Traore and Scott – a group that also leads Louisville in Steal percentage and blocks the firing percentage. Put on Louisville Noah Waterman and Hadley or Scott and Rooths or Scott and Hadley are a little worse in defense.

No matter how you break it up, of course Louisville plays well. Be assured that Louisville’s employees, which are carefully related to analytics, is much more than white. But Kelsey plays down the series.

“We just try to be great in the next one we do, that’s it,” he said. “I mean the success we had in the past play against Georgia Tech, we will let our butt kick.”
