ANALYSIS: High Point has a squad that most likely falls somewhere in the bottom half of NCAA Division I teams this year. They have a record of 14-16 and are ranked 247th overall (out of 351) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #6 team (out of 10) in the Big South (average ranking 237.2).
Offense is not the strong suit when it comes to High Point. The team is ranked 261st in offensive efficiency and scores fewer than 97 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. High Point isn't the greatest at protecting the ball on offense and, as a result, opponents tend to score more quick points off of steals than they normally would. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 12.53, which ranks 298th in D1.
High Point doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 106 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #232 in the nation in defensive efficiency. High Point can be weak on rebounding, giving the opposition too many chances to score off of the offensive glass. The club has a rating of 17.33 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (322nd nationally). High Point also commits too many fouls, which leads to plentiful free throw attempts for the opposition. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 30.23 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #311 in the country in that category. If High Point does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their ability to prevent opponents from draining shot attempts in between the three-point line and the low post. AO will convert just 34.3% of their mid-range field goal attempts, and the team is nationally ranked 50th-best in that category as a result.
High Point has been playing some of their worst basketball of the season as of late, and they're presently ranked seventh from the bottom in positive momentum because of it. On the road, High Point performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked 339th in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
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:
High Point is typically better vs. teams that do not defend well on the perimeter. Against foes that have a defensive three-point field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 35.20%, High Point performs above their norm 61% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 11% of the time.
When facing teams that do a nice job converting inside the paint, High Point often performs worse than normal. High Point is more efficient than usual 18% of the time when facing teams that have an offensive near-proximity field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 58.33%. In their other contests, High Point performs better than the norm 63% of the time.
High Point does worse vs. clubs that tend to allow more shots on the perimeter. When playing squads that have a defensive shooting proximity score vs. AO greater than 2.02, High Point performs above average 29% of the time. Against all other opponents, the team performs better than the norm 70% of the time.
