I spent the last 4 years working as a manager for the Auburn Men’s Basketball team and hope to bring some of the insight I gained there to covering the Suns. This will be an introductory column that will be the beginning of a weekly column on advanced analytics applied to breaking down the Suns.
As a manager for Auburn I worked closely with our video coordinator and became the analytics guru for the coaching staff. I tracked stats behind the bench during all games and applied them in a variety of ways to help us gain a slight edge.
