Cassise versus Kangas -- Follow Up

I decided to take the stats one step further to determine Cassise's effective FG%, which is based on the following formula:

(FG+ (0.5*3P)) / FGA

Here's Basketball-Reference.com's explanation of the stat:

This statistic adjusts for the fact that a 3-point field goal is worth one more point than a 2-point field goal. For example, suppose Player A goes 4 for 10 with 2 threes, while Player B goes 5 for 10 with 0 threes. Each player would have 10 points from field goals, and thus would have the same effective field goal percentage (50%).

Now, let's look at Cassise's numbers again:

With Kangas in Lineup

• 21-65 (32%) from the field, including 9-42 (21%) from 3-point range

Without Kangas in Lineup

• 27-76 from the field (35%), including 16-41 (39%) from 3-point range

Effective FG%
Using the above formula, we can now determine Cassise's effective field goal percentage, both with and without Kangas in the lineup.

With Kangas: 39%
Without Kangas: 46%

The numbers are plain as day...the kid shoots 39% from behind the arc when he gets minutes. When he doesn't, he dips 18% to a mere 21% from three.

He truly is the tale of two players depending on his spot in the lineup.
