ANALYSIS:
Per this website's calculations, Little Rock is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Haslametrics has them ranked 135th overall (out of 353) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 21-10. Of the 12 schools in the Sun Belt (average ranking 172.8), they're currently ranked as our #5 team in the conference.

If there is a strength for Little Rock this year, it's probably on the offensive end of the court. The team is rated 123rd in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 101 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Little Rock does a super job in their efforts to get to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 30.61 vs. AO, they are ranked 18th in the nation at getting to the charity stripe, where the team shoots a rather mediocre 69.3%. Little Rock also boasts one of the better offensive field goal percentages in the college game. The squad is ranked 30th in the country in field goal percentage, making approximately 46.6% of their attempts vs. AO. If Little Rock does have a glaring weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's difficulties in getting off a sufficient number of shots each possession.
