Defensive rating
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Template:Short description Defensive rating or defensive efficiency is a statistic used in basketball to measure an individual player's or team's efficiency at preventing the other team from scoring points. It was created by author and statistician Dean Oliver.[1] Oliver introduced the defensive rating statistic in his 2004 book, Basketball on Paper.[2]
The offensive equivalent is offensive rating.
Formula
The formula is: Defensive Player Rating = (Players Steals*Blocks) + Opponents Differential= 1/5 of possessions - Times blown by + Deflections * OAPDW( Official Adjusted Players Defensive Withstand). This stat can be influenced by the defense of a player's teammates.
Leaders
Gar Heard's 95.30 defensive rating is the NBA's all-time career record (minimum 15,000 minutes played).[3] Ben Wallace's 87.48 defensive rating in 2003–2004 is the single-season record.[4] Trae Young has the highest career defensive rating (minimum 15,000 minutes played), at 118.3. Hakeem Olajuwon and David Robinson each led the league in defensive rating a record five times. Tim Duncan led the league in defensive rating four times. Dwight Howard and Ben Wallace each led the league three times. Alton Lister, Andre Drummond, Patrick Ewing, Kevin Garnett, Rudy Gobert, Bill Walton, and Hassan Whiteside each led the league two times.
