You should look at turnover % before you start adding exclamation points while using TOV per 100.

B12 play:

1 Harris 29%
2 Garrett 22.1%
3 Wilson 20.4%
4 Enaruna 20.1%
5 Grant Foster 19.2%

10 David McCormack 9.9%

DMac takes more shots and takes more free throws - turnover % will adjust for that.

i’d even be in favor of pushing after a make
Another point in favor of this style, and perhaps one of this team’s strengths (if there are any), is that we’ve got a lot of serviceable handlers.

Marcus, Jalen, Christian, Dajuan, Bryce should all be able start a break. As soon as one of those guys gets the ball, just go!

Och too, but maybe not as much, and maybe Och should be the guy looking to finish either way.

And maybe this isn’t the best point to make when also discussing turnovers.

Pace is a big reason to play 4 out.

Wouldn’t that be fast pace, specifically?

Shooters is another big reason, but we don’t have that either.

We seem to do this at least once a game this year.
Yup
