We’re working diligently on our first mock draft of the 2012 NBA draft season. It’s important to gauge how well potential professional players performed against their peers during this college season. With that in mind, take a look at the PER (player efficiency) rankings for the Top 50 college basketball players this season.
PER: Player Efficiency Rating is the overall rating of a player’s per-minute statistical production (PER is a ranking based on the factors below).
Other ranking factors
AST: Assist Ratio – the percentage of a player’s possessions that ends in an assist.
TO: Turnover Ratio – the percentage of a player’s possessions that end in a turnover.
USG: Usage Rate – the number of possessions a player uses per 40 minutes.
ORR: Offensive rebound rate
DRR: Defensive rebound rate
REBR: Rebound Rate – the percentage of missed shots that a player rebounds.
