Chips are national percentiles within the selected split — a team’s away numbers are ranked against every other team’s away numbers, not against the full season. Gray chips mark stats with no good direction — tempo, shot diet and the scoring shares — where the rank says how unusual a team is, not how good.

Shot clock

A full turn is the thirty-second clock. How far a band reaches is how often the shot came from that stretch; the number under it is what those shots returned per attempt.

Fill is this team's shooting against the D-I average for that stretch of the clock — on the defensive dial, green means opponents shot worse. The dashed arc is where D-I's own share of shots sits on the same scale. Points per shot excludes free throws.
