Statistician's Digest: How are assists awarded in the NBA ?

"... How are assists awarded in the NBA? Is it a pass that results in a basket with no dribbles, one dribble, etc., in between? As in the NBA everything is different: are there specific guidelines for official scoring ? ..."

Basically, there is no difference with another leagues in this category, only the eBA System have a special treatment with the assists. According to the NBA’s statisticians' manual, an assist is credited to the player tossing "the last pass leading directly to a field goal if, and only if, the player scoring the goal responds by demonstrating immediate reaction toward the basket." An assist can be credited if a receiving player takes a dribble, so long as he makes an immediate reaction toward the basket.

See in our forum the assists topics and the exposition "Basketball Assists Analysis" at eBA ONLINE.
