The most effective factors to achieve
the winning and losing teams
(i) in balanced games, defensive rebounds .
(ii) in unbalanced games, 2 points field-goals, the defensive
rebounds and the assists
(Miguel Á et al, 2008)

The Sabermetrics of Basketballs
1. Shooting (40%)
2. Turnovers (25%)
3. Rebounding (20%)
4. Free Throws (15%)
The number in parentheses is the approximate weight Mr.
Oliver assigned each factor. Shooting is the most important
factor, followed by turnovers, rebounding, and free throws.

Study of Game-related statistics which discriminate
between winning and losing Basketball Junior Teams
U-17 in World Championship
Coaches should be aware that dominating the following
variables will increase the probability to win the games for
Junior teams under 17:
1. Height of players
2. Defensive Rebounds Efficiency Percentage (EDR %)
3. Free-Throws Made (FTM)
4. Field-Goal Made (FGM)
5. Field-Goal Attempted (FGA)
6. The effective field goal percentage (EFG %)
7. 2 Points Attempted (2PTSA)

Study of Game-related statistics which discriminate
between winning and losing Basketball Junior Teams
U-17 in World Championship
The most effective statistics variables for losing Egyptian team
in FIBA U-17 World Championship for Men 2012 as follow:
1. height of players
2. Field-Goal Attempted (FGA)
3. 3 Points Made (3PTSM)
4. 3 Points Attempted (3PTSA)
5. Assists (AST)
6. Turnovers (TO)
7. Ball possessions (BP)

Effective Field Goal percentage
EFG%
EFG% = (2Pt + 1.5 x 3Pt) / FGA
The Effective Field Goal percentage gives more credit to
made 3 point field goals since they yield 1.5 times the
scoring of a 2 point field goal

Offensive Rebounds Efficiency Percentage
(EOR%)
Off. Reb
x 100
(missed 2 pt + missed 3 pt + missed FT followed by rebounds)
10. Dr. Mohamed Belal
Defensive Rebounds Efficiency Percentage
(EDR%)
Def. Reb
x 100
(missed 2 pt + missed 3 pt + missed FT followed by rebounds)

Ball Possessions (BP)
BP = ( FGA + 0.475x FTA ) – ( ORB + TO )
Free throw attempts are a tricky number. Possessions can end with one
through three free throw attempts, so the number has to be multiplied by the
consensus value of 0.475 to get a more accurate calculation
Effective Field Goal Percentage is a measurement of how successful your team is from the field. This metric provides a more complete picture of the game situation than standard field goal percentages because three point shots are given extra weight.
You can use the box score because each possession ends with a recorded stat. You'll need to tally the team's field goal attempts, free throw attempts, offensive rebounds and turnovers. But free throw attempts are a tricky number. Possessions can end with one through three free throw attempts, so the number has to be multiplied by the consensus value of 0.475 to get a more accurate calculation. Add the product to field goal attempts and then subtract the number of offensive rebounds, because attempts that result in an offensive rebound do not end a possession. Now add turnovers
