What is Point Differential?

Point Differential is a measure of the difference between the average points a team scores and the average points they allow their opponents to score. It is often used in sports analytics to assess a team's overall performance. A positive point differential indicates that a team scores more points than they allow, while a negative differential indicates the opposite.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Calculate the Point Differential:

\[ PD = 95.5 - 89.3 = 6.2 \]

Therefore, the point differential is 6.2.
