Evaluate all-around single-game performances, multidimensional box score balance, and Hollinger Game Score impact for any player or lineup.
Why versatile stat lines drive championship-caliber streaks like Golden State's 31-11 run.
Steals and blocks together ("Stocks") produce sudden transition opportunities and suppress opponent offensive rating by ending possessions before shot attempts. A 4-steal performance shifts roughly 4.8 expected points in transition.
Formulated by John Hollinger: PTS + 0.4*FGM - 0.7*FGA - 0.4*(FTA-FTM) + 0.7*OREB + 0.3*DREB + STL + 0.7*AST + 0.7*BLK - 0.4*PF - TOV. A score of 10 is an average starter, 20 is an All-Star line, and 30+ is MVP-caliber.
When a perimeter wing grabs double-digit rebounds (12 REB), it relieves frontcourt load and accelerates instant fast-break pushes without waiting for an outlet pass, raising overall team pace.
The balance index measures how evenly a player contributes across all four core pillars: Scoring, Rebounding, Playmaking, and Defense (Steals & Blocks). It calculates normalized z-scores relative to standard starter production, penalizing one-dimensional profiles while rewarding balanced multi-category impact.
Yes. The default state replicates the exact reported stat line: Kaila Charles tying her career high of 16 points, 12 rebounds, 4 steals, 3 assists, and 2 made three-pointers during the Valkyries' 6th consecutive win to reach 31-11.
