Not sure how all that equates to TS% but it must still put Newman at a higher clip.

Regardless, we need much better offensive production at both wing positions next season.
I'm not sure where to find TS% 10 game splits without manually calculating. In conference play MAW was 48.8 and Newman was 49.6, so both still below average. Ado, Ody, Koval, and Saunders were all under 46 in conference play. On the other side, Davenport, Madsen, and Lakhin were all above 53 (Madsen was 57.1). So if we want to consider how guys were playing toward the end of the year, those are the three we might want to have an increased role.

Saunders had an up-and-down year from three. He started 12-27 (44%) in the non-conference, then went into a 2-18 (11%) slump before finishing 13-29 (45%).

TS% basically converts 3pt and FT into 2pt shots. One thing I like about this approach is it shows why midrange jumpers are so bad. You have to make 53% for it to be a good shot. No one on our team is even close to that. DDJ was best at 47%.
