[Paint Touches] Kolek is even better than you thought

Synergy just put out a new stat to measure the true points created by a player, not just buckets and assists, but passes that lead to free throws and hockey assists as well.

Thank you for the article.  Kolek is impressive.  I assume this chart would look fairly similar when comparing him to all of college basketball?

Thanks for that. I have always wondered why a pass to a player who is fouled, and makes the free throws isn't considered an assist.

Prob cuz #FTsNoMatta

But.. they’re not assisting on the foul shot.

Should we award an assist for a great pass and the guy misses a bunny?  I’d be more in favor of that. “Shoulda been” assists

I could agree to that, but define "bunny".  What if the guy misses a 70% shot?  Where do we draw the line?

One gets an assist in FIBA if at least one free throw is made.

I like the Big East comparison but have you done a national comparison?

Maybe it is worth a poll, but if given the choice to start your program with 1 guy, who are you taking between Markus Howard and Tyler Kolek?

Those TKO commercials are pretty ridiculous and embarrassing. Glad Tyler is making some $.

Yes, very happy that Tyler is making some money off of NIL. $5,000 for a brief commercial is pretty good for a 20 year old. Beats a paper route.

Figure 15% for Federal income taxes ($750); since he is an independent contractor, he has the privilege of paying not only FICA and Medicare at 7.65 % plus the match of 7.65 % or a total of 15.3 % ($765); figure Wisconsin income tax of 5% ($250); and maybe an agent takes 10% ($500).

Once Tyler realizes his $5000 gig nets him $2735, I hope he's still as enthusiastic.

Great lesson in economics 101 without even having to take the class. Silver lining---------may turn him into a lifelong Republican.

I loved Markus Howard, but it’s TKO and it isn’t close.

Ludicrous???

I agree. It's ludicrous that newly minted small businessman Tyler Kolek isn't allowed to keep a larger portion of his hard earned NIL compensation for himself.

Yeah. I'm hoping Dickthedribbler hires a professional to do his taxes.

Tell me what I got wrong. And be specific ( my scenario assumes he will have additional income in 2023).

Well first, the fee paid to the agent is deductible. I am sure he has other deductibles pre-tax

I was happy to see this thread back to the top of the board as I thought maybe there was a discussion about a "new" stat that may or may not reflex the true value of a player.  FYI, I am not sure this new one really shows that Kolek is so much better than everyone else.

Instead, in true Scoop fashion, it morphed into a discussion on taxation.  Well done!!  Just one factual correction on the taxation point, your first ~$13K of earnings are tax free from federal income taxes (assuming you are not claimed as a dependent on someone else's return).
