True shooting percentage

In basketball, true shooting percentage is an APBRmetrics statistic that measures a player's efficiency at shooting the ball.^[1] It is intended to more accurately calculate a player's shooting than field goal percentage, free throw percentage, and three-point field goal percentage taken individually. Two- and three-point field goals and free throws are all considered in its calculation. It is abbreviated TS%.

It is calculated by: $TS\%={\frac {PTS}{2(FGA+(0.44\times FTA))}}$ x 100

where:

PTS = points scored,
FGA = field goal attempts,
FTA = free throw attempts ^[2]
