Big East basketball 2023
applying lorenz curves to basketball
The Xavier Musketeers are putting on a good show in the tough Big East conference this year! Part of what makes this team special to watch is the depth of the roster. From leading score Souley Boum to 3pt sniper Adam Kunkel, it seems like any person on the roster is liable to go for 20. Coach Sean Miller has done a phenomenal job getting the ball to the players in situations where they have a strong advantage.
While classically the Lorenz curve and the gini index are used to measure income inequality, I thought that I would have some fun by applying these concepts to basketball.
