How to read HESI, PI and Dean Oliver ratings

//reading_guide

How to read the dossier

HESI

Stabilized event performance

A 0–100 event-relative rank of stabilized Net Rating. Smaller samples are pulled toward neutral before players are ordered.

PI

Prospect index

80% HESI performance, 12% competition context and 8% age context. It remains an event-scoped prospect index—not a universal ranking.

ORtg · DRtg · NRtg

Dean Oliver impact

Estimated points created and allowed per 100 possessions, plus their net difference. Lower DRtg is better.

Percentiles compare this athlete only with the published, trust-gated player pool from this event. Missing evidence stays blank and is never converted to zero.

event_signals

Automated Signals

The strongest patterns in this event sample, adjusted to the competition when event percentiles are available.

//automated_interpretation · dean_oliver + event_stats

What the numbers suggest

HESI performance sits at the 15th event percentile. The Dean Oliver profile estimates 51.7 ORtg and 83.3 DRtg, producing a -31.6 Net Rating. The lowest relative areas are rebounding, offensive efficiency, and two-way margin.

Relative strengths

No available metric currently clears the 65th event percentile.

Relative weaknesses

  1. Rebounding

    1.4 RPG

    13th event percentile

    Rebounding production sits below much of the event pool and is an area to examine against role and size.

  2. Offensive efficiency

    51.7 ORtg

    16th event percentile

    The Dean Oliver estimate places offensive production per 100 possessions below much of this event pool.

  3. Two-way margin

    -31.6 NRtg

    17th event percentile

    The current gap between estimated offensive and defensive efficiency trails much of this event pool.

model_limits

  • The available game and minute sample is still limited, so these relative findings may move.
  • This is an automated event-relative interpretation, not a scout evaluation or universal player grade.
  • Box scores cannot measure assignment difficulty, positioning, communication, decision quality, or off-ball value.
