3P finishing
What it measures
It is actual points ÷ expected points by zone. From there it becomes a percentile, and then a grade.
Corner threes and above-the-break threes are adjusted separately
How many players are ranked
This metric has an attempts cutoff. Players short of it are shown as “—” and are not ranked — which means there were too few attempts to rank them, not that they are bad at it.
