    No. 17 St. Joseph's beats No. 10 Gonzaga in Marquee MSG Match­Up All­America Nelson scores 20 as Hawk Hill takes over the Garden box score NEW YORK (AP) ­­ Jameer Nelson lived up to the billing. Jameer Nelson handled all the hype with 20 points for Saint Joseph's. The second­leading vote­getter on the AP's preseason All­ America team had 20 points, eight rebounds, 10 assists and a ton of oohs and aahs in leading No. 17 Saint Joseph's to a 73­66 victory over No. 10 Gonzaga in the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic on Friday night. The senior guard struggled with his shot in the first half but more than made up for it in the second, seeming to come up with every big play the Hawks needed in the teams' season opener. "People roll their eyes when I self­promote our kids, but he's the best in America because he leads and he believes the reason you play basketball is to make your team win," Saint Joseph's coach Phil Martelli said. Nelson's best sequence came when he drew a charge at midcourt, then took the inbounds pass and made a drive through traffic that left the crowd of 10,328 at Madison Square Garden standing and cheering. "It was great, probably the best game of this season so far," Nelson said, adding comedian to his other talents. More than 4,000 Saint Joseph's fans bought tickets and they turned the building in New York into Philadelphia's Hawk Hill for a night.

    A Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach to Studying the Double Team in the NBA

    The Advantage of Doubling: A Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach to Studying the Double Team in the NBA Jiaxuan Wang*, Ian Fox*, Jonathan Skaza, Nick Linck, Satinder Singh, Jenna Wiens University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI *These authors contributed equally to this work Abstract During the 2017 NBA playoffs, Celtics coach Brad Stevens was faced with a difficult decision when defending against the Cavaliers: ``Do you double and risk giving up easy shots, or stay at home and do the best you can?"1 It's a tough call, but finding a good defensive strategy that effectively incorporates doubling can make all the difference in the NBA. In this paper, we analyze double teaming in the NBA, quantifying the trade-off between risk and reward. Using player trajectory data pertaining to over 643,000 possessions, we identified when the ball handler was double teamed. Given these data and the corresponding outcome (i.e., was the defense successful), we used deep reinforcement learning to estimate the quality of the defensive actions. We present qualitative and quantitative results summarizing our learned defensive strategy for defending. We show that our policy value estimates are predictive of points per possession and win percentage. Overall, the proposed framework represents a step toward a more comprehensive understanding of defensive strategies in the NBA. 1 Introduction In basketball, most defensive metrics focus on discrete and sporadic events, e.g., blocked shots, steals, and deflected passes. However, a good defensive play embodies much more than such snapshots capture [2, 7]. For example, throughout a possession, a good defense might force a player into a poor shot location, or force the ball handler to take a series of sub-optimal actions.
