What are the most reliable “summer league statistics?
So that’s the Kings and Hornets WHO will compete for the title the Summer league From Las Vegas. But while Cooper Flagg and other main novices made only a few performances, each year, how much the summer league is the real indicator of the rook level …
Owen Phillips S’est (call) Examine that question, from a statistical point of view, for interesting results.
Therefore, he studied correlation of 25 different statistics in flight to the summer league and the NBA, of 485 novices since 2008. years. The result? Statistics is to describe the “style” of a play that is most reliable. “
Therefore, the number of attempts 3 points whose correlation is (3PT attempt at the spleen) the strongest. It is clear that Nokie that takes a lot of 3-point in flight flying ljeches will also take many 3 points in a large league.
“Style” statistics, not “performance”
The number of 3 points was taken over 36 minutes (3PA per 36), the number of passages for 36 minutes (AST 36), the counter number (BLK at 36) and the number of jumps during 36 minutes) are also reliable in the NBA.
In contrast, the “performance” statistics are on the contrary, very fluctuating. This is obviously logical, because the novices do not develop at all with the same players, nor face the same players, in the summer Ligojs and the NBA.
Therefore, there is almost no correlation between +/-summer leagues and the grand league, just as there is almost no correlation at the address of 3 points.
There is no need to worry too much when a player is extremely awkward in Las Vegas or to fire when it is very skillful. For a lot of statistics, what happens in Las Vegas remains (as a whole) in Las Vegas.
