shooting percentage

Shots made ratio

Shooting percentage is a statistic measuring accuracy in sports where players attempt shots at a goal or basket.

In basketball, it's the ratio of successful field goals to attempts, expressed as a percentage: She led the league with a 52% shooting percentage.

Hockey uses it similarly for goals versus shots on net.

A player who shoots a high percentage converts attempts efficiently.
