Basketball statistics are numerical data that help analyze player and team performance in the game of basketball. Common statistics include points scored, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. These metrics provide insights into how well players contribute to their team's success and can influence coaching decisions and player evaluations. In addition to individual stats, team statistics such as field goal percentage, turnovers, and points allowed are also important. Advanced statistics, like Player Efficiency Rating (PER) and Effective Field Goal Percentage (eFG%), offer deeper analysis, helping fans and analysts understand the game beyond basic numbers.
