Thanks for the explanation. I had no idea what usage rate is, but was curious.

i don't think this is the correct definition of usage rate. if a player has a 20% usage rate, it just means that they are taking 20% of the plays when they are out on the court -- it doesn't necessarily mean they are passing the ball the other 80% of the time. they could also be standing in the corner, setting screens, boxing out, etc.

Usage rate aka usage percentage is an estimate of the percentage of team plays used by a player while he was on the floor.

That makes more sense, I think I missed the bottom half of the formula. Either way, the takeaway remains the same about Hawkinsi don't think this is the correct definition of usage rate. if a player has a 20% usage rate, it just means that they are taking 20% of the plays when they are out on the court -- it doesn't necessarily mean they are passing the ball the other 80% of the time. they could also be standing in the corner, setting screens, boxing out, etc.
