@FurmanHoops this morning tweets the Paladins are "#3 in NCAA in 'Clutch Scoring" according to SynergySports. Anybody know how "Clutch Scoring" is measured? The tweet also refers to "1.11 points per possession", but wouldn't that include all 40 minutes and not just "crunch time", which I expect would only be the last several minutes. Seems like Clutch Scoring would be a meaningful stat, but am hoping some of the gang can elaborate.

"We define a late-game clutch shot as any hoop in the last five seconds of a game that gives a team the lead or forces overtime. "
