In basketball, EFF stands for “Efficiency,” a statistic that measures a player’s overall contribution to the game. It combines various performance metrics, such as points, rebounds, assists, steals, and turnovers, to provide a comprehensive view of a player’s effectiveness on the court.
The Efficiency (EFF) formula in basketball is calculated as follows:
EFF=Points+ Rebounds+ Assists +Steals +Blocks −(Missed Field Goals+ Missed Free Throws + Turnovers
This formula aggregates a player’s positive contributions and subtracts negative ones to determine their overall efficiency in a game.
