Shooting EfficiencySH-EFF
SH-EFF stands for shooting efficiency in basketball. Field goal accuracy with a made three counted for more than a made two.
How SH-EFF is calculated
SH-EFF = (FGM + 0.5 × 3PTM) ÷ FGA
It is effective field goal percentage written as a decimal, so .550 here and 55.0 on the eFG% page are the same number.
