ANALYSIS: Delaware State is one of the absolute worst teams in Division I basketball this year. Haslametrics has them ranked tenth from the bottom overall (out of 353) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 6-26. Of the 11 schools in the MEAC (average ranking 317.1), they're currently ranked as our #9 team in the conference. With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.240 (which ranks last in the nation), Delaware State has faced some of the easiest opponents in all of college basketball.
Delaware State has a very sieve-like defense that gives up points way too easily. The team is ranked sixth from the bottom in efficiency on that end of the court and gives up more than 114 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Delaware State allows the opposition far too many easy shots from the floor and ranks in the bottom-25 in three of our four major defensive field goal shooting categories. AO will convert a healthy 36.9% of their three-pointers (334th in the nation), 67.3% of their near-proximity attempts (ninth from the bottom), and 48.5% of their total shots from the field (341st). Delaware State also fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 33.11 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #343 in the country in that category.
Delaware State doesn't rate much better on offense than they do on defense. Scoring roughly 91 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #303 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Delaware State does a terrible job to take advantage of scoring chances off of offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team converts only 3.1% of all second-chance opportunities (340th nationally). Delaware State also has a hard time converting field goals attempts on offense. The team is rated #322 in the country in field goal percentage, making good on a meager 39.9% of their attempts vs. AO.
Delaware State has been playing better basketball in their most recent outings, as evidenced by the team's #34 ranking in positive momentum.
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.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
Delaware State is typically worse vs. teams that are typically efficient on offense. Against foes that have an offensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 90.19, Delaware State performs above their norm 40% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 90% of the time.
When facing teams that aren't terribly skilled defensively, Delaware State often performs better than normal. Delaware State is more efficient than usual 70% of the time when facing teams that have a defensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 102.38. In their other contests, Delaware State performs better than the norm 30% of the time.
Delaware State does better vs. clubs that favor a faster tempo. When playing squads that have a pace vs. AO greater than 68.79, Delaware State performs above average 70% of the time. Against all other opponents, the team performs better than the norm 30% of the time.
