Yeah, I know ... it is just 4 games ... against lower to mid-level teams from low to mid-major conferences. And Bailey only played in 2 games. And Williams has played hurt and missed a game. And Acuff may not be 100% yet. So, the team stats are meaningless ... way too small a sample size.
Even so ... fun:
1) Overall FG%: RU is shooting 49.8% from the field through 4 games. Five (5) individual players are shooting more than 50% FG (Bailey, Harper, Martini, Sommerville, Hayes).
2) 3-Point FG%: RU is shooting 37% from 3-point range, though just in 4 games. Hayes is at 54% (7-13), Martini is at 47% (8-17), Bailey is at 43% (3-7), Acuff is at 38% (3-8) and Harper is at 31% (5-16).
3) FT%: RU is shooting 71% from FT ... this is not great, but a big improvement over prior years. They are led by Derkack, at 13-14 (93%) ... Bailey is at 72% (9-12 in just 2 games) ... Sommerville is at 72% (13-18) ... Harper is at 71% (17-24) ... Davis is at 64% (7-11) ... Martini and Hayes ate 100% in 6 total FT between the 2 of them ... Ogbole is 3-9, 33% ... RU is 75% excluding Ogbole (who obviously counts ... but won't be on the court at end game times).
4) RU has 67 assists on 111 FG's ... 60% of FG's from assists.
5) On defense, though not sure this is good or bad or somewhere in between given the level of the competition: RU's opponents are shooting 39% FG overall, and 33% from 3-point range. RU is not forcing many TO's, though: Just 9.8 per game (I cannot even remember when RU was that low at any point of the season under Pikiell). Still, RU does have 6.5 steals per game, which is not bad, I do no think ... and 4.5 blocked shots per game, also not awful (Sommerville is the leader at 2.0 blocks per game). Also not a high level, due to the competition, RU has given up an average of 65 points per game on defense ... that will rise as the level of competition rises, one would think.
I am sure there are more, but after only 4 games, I thought this would be fun.
