I’m far from an expert in advanced analytics but this sounds pretty damn good.

I’d be lying if I didn’t admit to looking up the exact definition of eFG:

What is Effective Field Goal Percentage – eFG%? A metric used in NBA basketball that is similar to Field Goal Percentage, but adds an additional parameter. This parameter adjusts for the fact that 3-point field goals are worth 50 percent more than 2-point field goals.

eFG% = (FGM + (0.5 x 3PTM)) / FGA

I should also add that I’d trade 10% off that eFG in exchange for 5 more rebounds per game.
