The End. Oct8 THE END. OCT8 The 8th Grade Division featured SO MANY of the top players in the class! The division featured such nationally ranked and recognized players like Jayden Forrest, Lemarcus “Snoody” Wilkinson, Josh Holloway, EJ Smith, Jamarion “Woodie” Harvey, and Regale Moore. The season was full of excitement. There were dozens of twenty points performances, countless highlight plays, and almost every game was a close one. We got a chance to see several of the top players in the class go head up; EJ vs. Josh, Matthew vs. Rashad, and Snoody vs. Woodie. We also got a chance to see some kids really breakout and establish themselves amongst the top ranks. Marcus Crawford, Fred Deere, and Anthony Medlock all played their ways into the conversation. There were few more kids that turned heads. Aidan Moskovitz and Kameron Temple were a couple of those kids.

WEEK 3 RECAP. SEP12. Going into AllStar weekend several kids put up big numbers to secure their spots for Saturday. Anthony Medlock Jr. had one of the biggest performances of the day with a 22 ​ point outburst. He was absolutely unstoppable. Medlock’s versatility has really come into play so far in the season. He’s capable of playing several positions and in turn that allows him to score in several different ways. His teammate Tate Wirth had a nice game as well. ​ Wirth is another kid with a nice inside-outside game. He’s comfortable banging in the post and does very well drawing fouls. He can also step outside and knock down the three with a lot of consistency. Wirth finished with 11 points. Josh Holloway continues to impress with ​ his play. Whether he’s scoring or making the mind blowing pass for the assist he’s always a part of a big play. Holloway finished with 9 points, but more importantly they got the dub! Jordan Frison put his team on his back on Sunday and lead the team in scoring. Scoring however is nothing new to Frison. He’s a crafty combo guard that can bury the trey ball or attack the lane and finish with a nice floater. His teammate Javar Daniel, a 6’4 ​ ​ stretch four helped with the scoring load as well. Javar is a long kid that score around the rim but is comfortable on the perimeter too. He finished with 9 points. EJ Smith has been on a shooting spree and he doesn’t look to let up! He dropped 23 points in his teams first game of the day, and turned around and dropped 27 in the second game. He’s looking more and more like the best scorer in the class. His teammate Langston Rogers hasn’t been half-stepping either when it comes to putting the ball in the hole. In two games on Sunday Langston opened up the day with a 20 point performance. The reigning All-Star game MVP will be back for this year’s game and something tells me he has “repeat” on his mind. Montrellis Greene showed up and showed out on Sunday. His high ​ motor and intensity is rare to say the least. But he’s more the just a hustler and defender, the kid can score too. He scored 11 points in their first game before going off for 18 in the second. They won both games. Eric Allen instantly showed that he was one of the top 14U kids around. He scored 16 points in his debut, leading his team in scoring. Allen is a long guard that is capable of scoring in MANY ways. He’s deadly from long range and can’t be left open. His length also allows to cause smaller guards problems when he’s on the defensive end. Expect him to be an impact player as we head down the final stretch of the season. His teammate Jamarion ​ “Woodie” Harvey is another kid that can score it. Woodie is hard to stay in front of and can score inside or out. He shoots it well from the arc. He also doesn’t mind playing defense and that separates him from a lot of the other guards in the class. Woodie finished with 8 points on Sunday. Amari Chatman isn’t talked about as much as some of the other kids in ​ the class, but don’t get it twisted, the kid has game. He’s a nice PG who can handle, makes good decisions, and can score if need be. He can also knock down the open three. Amari finished with 7 points. Coach Gene James had 3 kids in double figures on Sunday; Lemarcus “Snoody” ​ Wilkinson lead the team in scoring with 16 points. Snoody has been a consistent scorer throughout the league. The lefty is hard to stop going to the rim. Matthew Stokes has been ​ another one of the leagues more consistent scorers. At 6’4 Stokes is both a solid rebounder and shot blocker. He makes his presence felt in the post and we definitely expect his name to be we’ll be hearing for years to come. Stokes finished with 14 points. Jordan James may ​ be one of the most underrated kids in the class. He’s a solid ballplayer all the way around. At the guard spot he has nice size, handles the ball well, and can shoot it. As a scorer he’s very well rounded. He shoots the 3 well, makes free throws, and has a nice mid-range shot. Andre Watson’s campaign continued on this past Sunday. There is no way around it. He is one of the best guards in the city, HANDS DOWN! We have become more and more impressed game after game. This past Sunday he scored 16 points, including FOUR three pointers. His teammate Fred “Mane Mane” Deere has been doing a little campaigning on ​ the court himself. Mane Mane has been considered one of the better players in the class for years now. However, of late, with his play and production on the court he is making the case to be called “elite”. He has nice size, standing 6’1, and is a solid defender and rebounder. But what stands out about him is he continues to consistently put the ball in the hole. He’s a consistent score, with a knack for drawing fouls, AND he’s automatic from the free throw. He finished with 11 points in Sunday’s game. WEEK 3 STANDOUTS! (EJ Smith, Anthony Medlock Jr., Javar Daniel, Marcus Crawford, and Eric Allen). WEEK 2 RECAP. SEP5. Every game in the 8th Grade Division has been decided by single digits. Week 2 did not disappoint. GRADY V. WILLIAMS Coach Lance Williams had three players in double figures in Week 2. Fred “Mane Mane” ​ Deere went off for 18 points, bujt it was his defense that impressed us the most. Andre ​ Watson added 16 points including four 3’s, and Seth Grandberry finished with 12. ​ ​ ​ This game went into double overtime! In the end it was big performances from Jayden Forrest (18 points), Ryaan Forrest (12 points), Javar Daniel (12 points), and ​ ​ Jordan Frison (10 points) that helped Coach Grady finally pull away. ​ GRADY 59 WILLIAMS 55 MOORE V. ANTHONY Coach Jerry Anthony had several players standout in his team’s first game of the season. Joshua Burchette led the team in scoring with 12 points, Kevion Fayne was right behind ​ him with 11 points, and point guard Marcus Crawford finished with 8 points. ​ ​ Regale Moore and Aidan Moskovitz carried the scoring load for Coach Matt ​ Moore’s squad. Regale had a game high 14 points and Aidan had 12. MOORE 40 ANTHONY 36 HOLLOWAY/ MORRIS V. CROCKETT/ SMITH The Defending Champions found themselves in a dogfight in their Week 2 game versus Holloway/ Morris. A dogfight that ended in overtime. EJ Smith led all scorers with 21 points. Langston Rogers added 6 points and Kam ​ ​ Temple chipped in with 5 points of his own. ​ Coaches Holloway and Morris however had three players with double figures. Josh ​ Holloway led them with 15 points, Anthony Medlock had 12, and Tate Wirth had 11. Zane ​ ​ “Pitbull” Beard’s lockdown defense helped to force turnovers and made big hustle plays down the stretch. Needless to say, they got the dub! HOLLOWAY/ MORRIS 45 CROCKETT/ SMITH 40 JAMES V. MOORE With two of the top guards in the class in Jamarion “Woodie” Harvey and Regale Moore ​ ​ on the same team Coach Matt Moore’s team is obvious contender. They took on Coach Gene James squad in their Week 2 game and of course Woodie and Regale led Coach Moore’s team in scoring. Regale finished with 11 and Woodie finished with 10.

Gramacy External Examiner Professor Department of Statistics Virginia Polytechnic and State University Date Defended: August 20, 2020 ii Abstract The first project in this thesis explores how efficiently players in a basketball lineup col- lectively allocate shots. We propose a new metric for allocative efficiency by comparing a player’s field goal percentage (FG%) to their field goal attempt (FGA) rate in context of both their four teammates on the court and the spatial distribution of their shots. Lever- aging publicly available data provided by the National Basketball Association (NBA), we estimate player FG% at every location in the offensive half court using a Bayesian hierar- chical model. By ordering a lineup’s estimated FG%s and pairing these rankings with the lineup’s empirical FGA rate rankings, we detect areas where the lineup exhibits inefficient shot allocation.

  • Ranking the Greatest NBA Players: an Analytics Analysis
    1 Ranking the Greatest NBA Players: An Analytics Analysis An Honors Thesis by Jeremy Mertz Thesis Advisor Dr. Lawrence Judge Ball State University Muncie, Indiana July 2015 Expected Date of Graduation May 2015 1-' ,II L II/du, t,- i II/em' /.. 2 ?t; q ·7t./ 2 (11 S Ranking the Greatest NBA Players: An Analytics Analysis . Iv/If 7 Abstract The purpose of this investigation was to present a statistical model to help rank top National Basketball Association (NBA) players of all time. As the sport of basketball evolves, the debate on who is the greatest player of all-time in the NBA never seems to reach consensus. This ongoing debate can sometimes become emotional and personal, leading to arguments and in extreme cases resulting in violence and subsequent arrest. Creating a statistical model to rank players may also help coaches determine important variables for player development and aid in future approaches to the game via key data-driven performance indicators. However, computing this type of model is extremely difficult due to the many individual player statistics and achievements to consider, as well as the impact of changes to the game over time on individual player performance analysis. This study used linear regression to create an accurate model for the top 150 player rankings. The variables computed included: points per game, rebounds per game, assists per game, win shares per 48 minutes, and number ofNBA championships won. The results revealed that points per game, rebounds per game, assists per game, and NBA championships were all necessary for an accurate model and win shares per 48 minutes were not significant.

It does take a combination of will and skill, but more importantly is team play and defense, two aspects of the game not always associated with the sport on the AAU level. But, that so-called dirty work on the defensive end, along with an often-difficult to accomplish team chemistry on offense once again proved to be the winning formula for most of the teams in the 20th edition of the prestigious event held in New York's Capital Region over Memorial Day Weekend. No one said it better that Pat McGlynn, coach of the Gold Bracket title at the 17-under age division. "We've got 10 hillbillies who all know what counts in events like this," said McGlynn. "These kids all came here just to play basketball." PAGE | 1 And so they did, and they did it well. The York Ballers were particularly proficient on the defensive end, limiting its three opponents to a tournament-low 70 total points in their three pool-round games and not many more in the championship round. Platinum Bracket champion at the 17-under division, the New York Havoc squad, similarly played a team-first style to find their stride and capture a title.

  • Measuring Spatial Allocative Efficiency in Basketball
    Measuring Spatial Allocative Efficiency in Basketball Nathan Sandholtz, Jacob Mortensen, and Luke Bornn Simon Fraser University August 4, 2020 Abstract Every shot in basketball has an opportunity cost; one player's shot eliminates all potential opportunities from their teammates for that play. For this reason, player-shot efficiency should ultimately be considered relative to the lineup. This aspect of efficiency—the optimal way to allocate shots within a lineup|is the focus of our paper. Allocative efficiency should be considered in a spatial context since the distribution of shot attempts within a lineup is highly dependent on court location. We propose a new metric for spatial allocative efficiency by comparing a player's field goal percentage (FG%) to their field goal attempt (FGA) rate in context of both their four teammates on the court and the spatial distribution of their shots. Leveraging publicly available data provided by the National Basketball Association (NBA), we estimate player FG% at every location in the offensive half court using a Bayesian hierarchical model. Then, by ordering a lineup's estimated FG%s and pairing these rankings with the lineup's empirical FGA rate rankings, we detect areas where the lineup exhibits inefficient shot allocation. Lastly, we analyze the impact that sub-optimal shot allocation has on a team's overall offensive potential, demonstrating that inefficient shot allocation correlates with reduced scoring. Keywords: Bayesian hierarchical model, spatial data, ranking, ordering, basketball *The first and second authors contributed equally to this work. 1 Introduction arXiv:1912.05129v2 [stat.AP] 1 Aug 2020 From 2017 to 2019, the Oklahoma City Thunder faced four elimination games across three playoff series.

  • Basketball Game
    2012 E.C (2019\2020) ACADEMIC YEAR THIRD QUARTER H.P.E HANDOUT FOR GRADE 11 Name:_____________________________________ section:________ Basketball Game Basketball rules have some differences between the NBA and all other competitions, trying to get some improvement in certain aspects, but the trend is that these differences will fade over time. Basketball Court: The basketball court should be rigid and free of obstructions, with measures 28 meters long by 15 meters wide. The field has several lines and markings that we will now explain one by one as follows: A. Lateral Lines – These lines are on the sides of the court and delimit the same, marking the zone valid to play. B. Limit Line – This line also serves to delimit the field and it is from her that the players replace the ball in play when she left or a basket is made. C. Central Line – The central line is responsible for dividing the field in half and defining which defensive zone and attacker belongs to which team. D. Line 3 points – The pitches that are made behind this line are worth 3 points to enter. The line is 6,75 meters from the basket. E. Free Throw Line – It is from this line that the players who will make a free throw the ball. At launch, the player cannot step on the line or overtake it before the ball touches the rim. F. Free Throw Circle – The free-throw circles have a diameter of 3.65 meters. During the free-throw throw, the shooter must remain within the free-throw circle.

  • 2020-21 Duke Basketball
    2020-21 DUKE BASKETBALL CLIPS FILE » 2020-21 DUKE BASKETBALL | CLIPS FILE If Duke is to make a run to NCAA tourney, Mark Williams just showed how to do it By Luke DeCock, Raleigh News & Observer (March 10, 2021) GREENSBORO - At this point, after a season of false dawns, far be it from anyone to claim, presume, surmise or otherwise deduce that Duke has turned some kind of a corner. One can only fall into that trap so many times. But, just for sake of argument, if Duke were going to pull off the improbable five-in- five at the ACC tournament, or at the least win enough to actually make a legitimate case for the NCAA tournament, the way Duke has played so far in Greensboro is how Duke would have to play to make it happen. “So far” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there, with Florida State looming in Thursday’s quarterfinals, but Tuesday night’s win over Boston College and Wednesday’s 70-56 win over Louisville had a lot in common, starting with the continuing emergence of freshman big man Mark Williams as an unstoppable force and on down the line. With Matthew Hurt making some unlikely shots from uncertain positions and the freshman backcourt of DJ Steward and Jeremy Roach showing considerable defensive improvement, the things Duke needed to fall into place are falling into place. There was a lot of back and forth in Wednesday’s first half — a 12-0 Duke run followed by an 16-0 Louisville run followed by a 12-0 Duke run that spilled into the second half — but the Blue Devils took firm control after that.
