ANALYSIS: La Salle is a fairly decent basketball team that, while likely better than average, isn't quite good enough to crack any top-25 rankings this year. Ranked 139th overall (out of 351) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 13-19. They are also ranked by this site as the #5 team (out of 14) in the A-10 (average ranking 151.4).
Based on their performances this year, La Salle will likely find more success on defense than they will on offense. Allowing about 100 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #129 slot in the ratings for defensive efficiency. La Salle has been doing fairly decent work to prevent opponents from getting off shots from the field. The club is ranked 76th in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 79.58 vs. AO. If La Salle does exhibit a weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's issues trying to stop opponents from obtaining and converting second-chance opportunities via offensive rebounds. The squad has a defensive second-chance conversion percentage of 8.4% vs. AO, which ranks 46th-worst in the nation.
La Salle plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 156th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 102 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.
On the road, La Salle performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked 328th 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.
