Who starts isn't terribly important to me. Who plays most minutes is. The mileage on the advanced stats may vary, but the BPM and WS/40 (Box Plus/Minus and Win Shares per 40 minutes) stats have the Murray twins as the best Iowa players by a wide margin. If you throw out Luke Laketa's 17 minutes played, here's how it goes.
Player | PER | WS/40 | BPM |
Keegan Murray | 43.2 | .372 | 16.0 |
Kr. Murray | 31.6 | .288 | 10.6 |
Perkins | 21.5 | .198 | 6.3 |
Bohannon | 16.6 | .161 | 4.5 |
P. McCaffery | 19.0 | .159 | 5.4 |
Toussaint | 17.1 | .147 | 3.0 |
Sandfordt | 17.1 | .146 | -0.2 |
Rebraca | 14.5 | .139 | 0.5 |
Ulis | 14.7 | .136 | 2.6 |
Ogundele | 16.3 | .118 | 3.1 |
C. McCaffery | 7.9 | .089 | 1.3 |
