When comparing the performances of the Basketball players Caliper recommended to those who we suggested coaches pass on, you can’t argue with statistics. The Caliper-recommended athletes scored 909 points per season versus 376 for the players we determined lacked the traits necessary for consistent success. When it came to rebounds, Caliper-recommended players had 320 compared to 160 for those not recommended. This same inequality holds true for blocked shots: 51 versus 23; assists: 207 versus 91; steals: 77 versus 33; and minutes played 1,919 versus 1,004.
