Plus/Minus has long been considered an up-and-coming stat in the basketball world. The website 82games.com keeps detailed plus/minus on the NBA, yet no site that I know of, even the fantastic Kenpom.com, captures them for college hoops.

I’m a fan of the stat, although it’s not without its detractors in the basketball world. It measures a team’s performance while the player was on the floor against its performance with the player on the bench.

Here’s the plus/minus stats from the Montana game:

Elston Turner: +17
Isaiah Thomas: +7
Venoy Overton: +7
Darnell Gant: +5
Matthew Bryan-Amaning: +4
Scott Suggs: +2
Tyreese Breshers: 0
Clarence Trent: -1
Quincy Pondexter: -3
Justin Holiday: -4

Abdul Gaddy: -18

Thanks for coming! (Special thanks to Dawgman.com contributor, Rich, for providing the stats in this post.)

    Definitely an off night. I would think that all of the guys with 0 and below would generally be in the plus for this team.

    Was that stat for the season or was that just for the Montana game?
