quote:

True shooting percentage equals half the points scored divided by the sum of the field goals attempted and 0.475 times the free throws attempted.

regarding True Shooting Percentage, why is this not a flat 0.5 for free throws? effective Shooting Percentage makes sense to me but this does not

i've guessed that this is because the first of successive free throws is not available for a rebound, but this feels flimsy to me.

so if i miss a three pointer
i miss another three pointer
get fouled on a two point attempt, miss both free throws
get fouled making a three pointer, plus make the and one

i have made 1 of 4 from the field, 1 of 3 from behind the arc, and 1 of 3 at the line

what is my true shooting?

if you miss on a shot attempt and go to the line it doesn't count as an attempt at all, so you are 1/3 on all three

that means 6 FGAs overall and 3 FTs from the line, into the formula FGA + 0.44 * FTA for shot attempts. 6+.44(3)=7.32

true shooting percentage takes that 7.32 and plugs it into points/2*true shooting attempts. So 4 points divided by 14.64. .273 TS%

""Explaining True Shooting Percentage (TS%) posted:

However, we have to account for technical free throws, free throws after a missed three-pointer, and “and-one” plays. If you searched for the best approximate coefficient, you’d find that 0.44 is the sweet spot. It’s an approximation, but it’s a pretty good one.

okay so


is correct, but the explainer asks me to believe that technical free throws, are different from three charity shots, are different from "and-one," so they have different coefficient values
when they all are one point
