ANALYSIS:
As an average to slightly above-average foe, La Salle should probably not be discounted by opponents this year. Haslametrics has them ranked 136th overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 13-19. Of the 14 schools in the A-10 (average ranking 152.0), they're currently ranked as our #5 team in the conference.

If there is a strength for La Salle this year, it's probably on the defensive end of the court. The team is rated 131st in defensive efficiency, allowing fewer than 101 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. La Salle has been doing fairly decent work to prevent opponents from getting off shots from the field. The club is ranked 91st in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 79.96 vs. AO. If La Salle does exhibit a weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's inability to stop opponents from sinking threes. AO will convert 38.0% of their three-point attempts, and the team ranks 48th-worst in that category because of it.

La Salle plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 149th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 103 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. La Salle is deadly accurate at the free throw line. Making 79.2% of their attempts from the stripe, they are ranked eighth nationally in free throw percentage. Unfortunately, with a free throw attempt rate of just 23.94 vs. AO, they don't provide themselves a whole lot of opportunities at the foul line.

On the road, La Salle performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked 329th in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
