Taking Them, But Not Dishing Them Out

Posted Mar 16, 2006

There has been a lot of talk this season about Tyler Hansbrough and his propensity for getting to the free throw line. Tyler is 13th in the country with a free throw rate of 75.5%. This measures a player’s ability to get the line using the number of free throws shot per 100 field goal attempts. That coupled with his 73.7% FT shooting has made him extremely efficient and 2nd in the league in scoring. (Tar Heel Born, Tar Heel Bred)
