ANALYSIS:
If you're looking for a squad in the bottom quartile of all Division I basketball teams this year, Delaware State likely fits the bill. Their record this season is 10-22, and the club is ranked 336th overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #8 team (out of 13) in the MEAC (average ranking 319.3). With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.306 (which ranks 335th nationally), Delaware State has had one of the cushiest slates in all of college basketball.

Offense comes as a real struggle to Delaware State this year. The team is rated 335th in offensive efficiency and scores fewer than 90 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Delaware State is among the worst of the worst when it comes to field goal shooting. The team is rated #329 in the country in field goal percentage, making good on a meager 39.4% of their attempts vs. AO. Their struggles are especially obvious close to the basket, as the team shoots just 52.4% in near-proximity field goal percentage vs. AO (ranked 328th in the NCAA). Delaware State also struggles to draw fouls and earn opportunities at the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 22.56 vs. AO, they are 326th in the overall rankings for that category.

Delaware State doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 111 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #322 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Delaware State gives up far too many offensive rebounds and second chances to their opponents. The club has a rating of 18.52 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (fifth from the bottom nationally), and they let AO convert a healthy 8.4% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 312th) as well. Delaware State also fares terribly when attempting to stop opponents from converting from the inside. The team is ranked 341st in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 68.5% of their attempts from close-up.
