DRB%, or Defensive Rebound Percentage, is a basketball statistic that measures the percentage of available defensive rebounds a player or team secures. It is calculated by dividing the number of defensive rebounds by the total number of available defensive rebounds, which includes all missed shots by the opposing team. A higher DRB% indicates better performance in securing rebounds and limiting second-chance opportunities for opponents. This statistic is important for evaluating a player's or team's effectiveness in defense. A strong DRB% can contribute to overall team success by preventing the opposing team from scoring and allowing for better transition opportunities. Coaches and analysts often use DRB% to assess rebounding skills and defensive strategies.
