About Effective Field Goal Percentage
Effective field goal percentage (eFG%) is a basketball statistic that adjusts field goal percentage to account for the fact that a made three-pointer is worth more than a made two-pointer. It gives a more accurate picture of a player's shooting efficiency.
Formula
- eFG% = (FGM + 0.5 × 3PM) / FGA
- FGM = Field goals made
- 3PM = Three-pointers made (a subset of FGM)
- FGA = Field goals attempted
