Here’s a quick stat pack to get you through the next two days, until the action starts.
First, we’ll go over the top scorers, rebounders, shot blockers, and other ‘bests’ in the tournament from among the Final Four squads.
Then, we’ll give you the tournament stats from every player on all four Final Four teams. You’ll be able to see just how amazingly balanced Kentucky has been, how few minutes Ohio State’s bench has played, how crazy important Elijah Johnson’s outside touch has been for Kansas, and how much Louisville relies on the distribution of Peyton Siva.
Here are the top Final Four players in several key categories, based on only their NCAA tournament performance this year.
Team | Player | G | Min | Pts/G | Pts/40 | Pts/100 | %Shots | eFG% | TS% |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Ohio St | Deshaun Thomas | 4 | 38.3 | 21.8 | 22.7 | 31.4 | 32.1% | 57.5% | 59.8% |

Kentucky | Doron Lamb | 4 | 29.8 | 16.8 | 22.5 | 23.4 | 22.7% | 68.9% | 70.6% |
Kansas | Thomas Robinson | 4 | 31.5 | 15.8 | 20.0 | 23.1 | 30.8% | 38.8% | 44.5% |
Louisville | Chane Behanan | 4 | 32.0 | 14.0 | 17.5 | 21.8 | 20.9% | 65.3% | 64.2% |
Louisville | Russ Smith | 4 | 20.5 | 13.3 | 25.9 | 20.7 | 38.1% | 44.0% | 51.5% |

Kentucky | Marquis Teague | 4 | 33.3 | 14.5 | 17.4 | 20.2 | 21.4% | 51.3% | 58.1% |
Kansas | Elijah Johnson | 4 | 33.3 | 13.5 | 16.2 | 19.8 | 20.6% | 62.2% | 60.9% |
Kentucky | Terrence Jones | 4 | 32.5 | 13.5 | 16.6 | 18.8 | 21.4% | 55.3% | 56.3% |
Pts/40 is points per 40 minutes of playing time. Pts/100 is points per 100 team possessions (This factors in bench time, so players that sit a lot won’t do well. The idea here is to account for tempo). %Shots is an estimate of the fraction of his teams shots a player takes while he is in the game. eFG% is effective field goal percentage, which is like regular field goal percentage, but gives a bonus for three pointers. TS% is true shooting percentage, which is like eFG%, but also takes into account trips to the free throw line.
