"Points Per Game" (PPG) is a statistic used in sports to measure the average number of points a player or team scores in a game. It is calculated by dividing the total points scored by the number of games played. This metric helps evaluate a player's scoring ability or a team's offensive performance over a season. In basketball, for example, a player with a PPG of 20 means they score, on average, 20 points in each game. Coaches and analysts often use PPG to compare players, assess talent, and make strategic decisions during games and throughout the season.
