ANALYSIS: This website places Princeton in the top 25% of all NCAA college basketball teams this year. Carrying a record of 24-5, they are currently rated #88 overall (out of 362) in All-Play Percentage this season. Of the eight schools in the Ivy League (average ranking 190.0), they're currently ranked as the best team in the conference.
Princeton has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #41 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 114 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Princeton lives and dies by the three-ball and will launch from long-distance early and often. The team ranks third in ratio of three-point attempts to total field goal attempts. When it comes to actually making their three-point attempts, the squad shoots a so-so 34.9% from beyond the arc vs. AO. Princeton is also deadly accurate at the free throw line. Making 79.9% of their attempts from the stripe, they are ranked fourth nationally in free throw percentage. If Princeton does have a glaring weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's difficulties obtaining and converting second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad has a second-chance conversion percentage of just 2.8% vs. AO, which ranks third-worst in the nation.
Though they're not quite as efficient defensively as they are offensively, Princeton still does OK when the opposition has possession of the ball. The team ranks 169th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 105 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Princeton does a pretty solid job avoiding careless fouls and minimizing opponents' opportunities from the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 22.79 vs. AO, they are currently rated 39th in the country in that category. Princeton is also a solid rebounding team that will deny the opposition chances to score off of offensive rebounds. They have a rating of 11.51 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (ranked 50th in the country). If Princeton does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's difficulties stopping opponents from converting from the inside. AO will convert 63.2% of their near-proximity field goal attempts, and the team ranks 24th-worst in that category as a result.
Projections are based on present-day ratings. Stars indicate games played at a neutral location. Game efficiencies only account for data before a contest has gone analytically final and are adjusted to extract home-court advantage.
