In basketball, true shooting percentage is an advanced 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: ${\displaystyle TS\%={\frac {PTS}{2(FGA+(0.44\times FTA))))}$

where:

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

Several NBA players have consistently high True Shooting Percentages, demonstrating their ability to efficiently score points for their teams. One such player is Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors, who has consistently posted TS% above 60% throughout his career. Curry's exceptional shooting ability, especially from beyond the arc, has made him one of the most efficient scorers in NBA history.

Another player known for his high TS% is Kevin Durant, currently playing for the Phoenix Suns. Durant's combination of size, skill, and shooting ability has allowed him to consistently post TS% above 60% throughout his career, making him one of the most efficient scorers in the league.

In addition, big men like Rudy Gobert of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Clint Capela of the Atlanta Hawks have also posted high TS% due to their ability to score efficiently around the basket and convert free throws at a high rate.

Overall, True Shooting Percentage is an important metric in evaluating a player's scoring efficiency, and these players have consistently demonstrated their ability to efficiently put points on the board for their respective teams.
