Michigan returns Elliot Cadeau. Michigan State returns Jeremy Fears Jr. Two floor generals. Two rivals. Two of the nation's best at drawing charges. ⬇️

📊 Cupcakes and contenders aren't the same. These players had the biggest swings in field goal percentage between Quad 1 2 and Quad 3 4 games this season ⬇️

⏱️ Forced into desperation. These teams made life miserable for opposing offenses, forcing the most shot clock violations this season. The most in a single game? 6, by Virginia against Stanford.

Have you checked out the Player Comps at CBB Analytics? Our similarity scores are built from 20 statistics covering shooting, play style, defense, and overall player profile. Louisville's Mike Brown draws some fascinating comparisons, ranging from Trae Young to Coby White.

Keaton Wagler's going to be such an interesting case study to follow as an offensive player. Zero dunks has been the headline, but for a lead guard, he laps his peers in FTr and OREB%. Could find himself in a weird middle-ground where he's not enough of a playmaker to be a lead guard, but a bad defender on the wing. But has so much impact as a shot-maker and possession-maximizer on offense that it doesn't really matter, and you just have to put him out there. Don't think it all depends on the shooting being elite, but still think the shooting could be elite. Would certainly help. Lottery guy, as I see it, but 100% tentative on that. Can't think conventionally about unconventional guys.

Messing around on @CBBAnalytics because Nebrasketball was on my mind and came across this fascinating chart. Last season, Fred Hoiberg mentioned about once a week how Nebraska's offense was better when it wasn't "taking the ball out of the net" and, uh, yeah. True.

🧊 Ice water in their veins. Last 5 minutes. Score within 6 points. Here were the nation's best clutch time free throw shooters this season ⬇️

Reed Sheppard's shooting by zone at Kentucky in the 2023-24 season ⬇️

There are 1,011 players remaining in the transfer portal, although many would require waivers to continue their college careers. This includes 527 non-seniors still looking for landing spots. Is your team still filling out its roster? Here are the top non-seniors available ⬇️

Kentucky got a good one. Milan Momcilovic was 1 of 2 players in the country to shoot 50% from the field, 45% on three-pointers, and 85% on free throws this season. Gosh, his shot chart is pretty 😍

Bennett Stirtz played 5,118 minutes over the last 4 seasons. It's the most minutes for any college player in a 4-year span across all NCAA divisions since Washington's Kelsey Plum from 2013-17. #IronMan

Big games. Bigger performances. Here are the country's leading scorers against ranked opponents this season ⬇️

This just furthers my point. Per @CBBAnalytics Okorie made less than half of his HC rim FGAs this season.

Tounde Yessoufou will be an impact player for Rick Pitino and St. John's. He averaged 17.8 PPG, 5.9 RPG, and 2.0 SPG this season at Baylor. The only other freshmen to reach these marks in the last 20 years are LSU's Ben Simmons & Duke's Zion Williamson.

The original reference for stats and lampposts was this from Andrew Lang: "Most people use statistics like a drunk man uses a lamppost; more for support than illumination." I try to use stats for illumination. It actually bugs me when people look to stats only for support.

No matter the tempo, these offenses had answers. Only 7 teams finished in the top-25 in the country in both halfcourt and transition offensive efficiency. Different styles. Same problem for defenses.

Clutch time changes everything. These teams saw the largest 📈📉shifts in field goal percentage from their season average when the score was within 6 points during the final 5 minutes.
