Interesting numbers here for VJ and Omier. I am skeptical of the high number for Omier for defense. These analytics are adjusted for opponent strength.

Here are the players with the best statistical output this year, adjusted for opponent strength faced, according to Box BPR at https://t.co/cegyfz96ax.

The top three by a good margin: Johni Broome, Braden Smith, and Cooper Flagg 👇 pic.twitter.com/58yEwlaCNp

I've seen 4 different defensive ratings systems using varying stats and all had VJ very high and Norchad high. They had Josh O at an above average level as well and Nunn at an average level. Then, all 4 literally had Wright, Roach, Celestine and Love woefully bad.

Almost statistically impossible to have two guys as good as Omier and Vj and be this bad. I will say I'm also slightly skeptical of Omier's defensive rating but he has flashes.

Another interesting analytic if anyone is familiar with this. Rating based on shot quality (supposedly). It tracks with top teams outside for two very glaring exceptions. Again I have mixed feelings on various analytics and statistical summations but it's interesting.

Out go the Kansas Jayhawks and entering the top 15 is the Mississippi State Bulldogs 🐕

Baylor and Gonzaga remain potentially sleeping giants (wake tf up plz), while ISU, Texas A&M, and SJU are the notable teams missing from the SQ Top 15. 🔬 pic.twitter.com/sd1CvkAmIx
