Using proprietary data from Vantage Sports that tracks a variety of heretofore unmeasurable actions (such as screening), we are now able to identify and attribute credit to individuals. The data was collected over the span of roughly 2.5 seasons, giving us a large enough sample size to draw conclusions. For the purposes of this piece, let's focus on three specific aspects of screening: (see explanation at the bottom of the story)
1. Screen frequency
2. Screen quality
3. Screen outcome
Amir Johnson | Toronto Raptors
AAV: $6 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 63.4
Solid Screen %: 68.3 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency: 34.3
Former Raptors GM Bryan Colangelo has been much maligned for some of the contracts he's handed out to underachieving players, but his 2010 signing of Johnson was nothing short of a home run. Throughout his career, Johnson has literally made a living off doing the "little things" that don't show up on a box score, and screening is definitely one of them.
Note: Tiago Splitter, Joakim Noah, Kendrick Perkins are among the very best at these screen setting aspects. However, they are also handsomely compensated ($10 million, $11.1 million, and $8.7 million respectively), so they were excluded from this list.
Omer Asik | Houston Rockets
AAV: $8.4 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 61.7
Solid Screen %: 72.9 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency %: 34.7
Taj Gibson | Chicago Bulls
AAV: $8.3 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 47.9
Solid Screen %: 71.5 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency%: 40.7
Marcin Gortat | Washington Wizards | 2014 UFA
AAV: $6.8 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 59.7
Solid Screen %: 74.7 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency%: 35.7
Spencer Hawes | Cleveland Cavaliers | 2014 UFA
AAV: $6.6 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 56.6
Solid Screen %: 69.9 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency%: 27.2
Amir Johnson | Toronto Raptors
AAV: $6 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 63.4
Solid Screen %: 68.3 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency: 34.3
Robin Lopez | Portland Trail Blazers
AAV: $5.1 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 52.4
Solid Screen %: 78.8% | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency: 37.0%
Ekpe Udoh | Milwaukee Bucks | 2014 RFA
AAV: $3.6 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 57.4
Solid Screen %: 80.0 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency%: 37.1
Bismack Biyombo | Charlotte Bobcats
AAV: $3.2 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 55.1
Solid Screen %: 72.2 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency%: 38.0
Kosta Koufos | Memphis Grizzlies
AAV: $3 million | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 45.3
Solid Screen %: 77.0 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency%: 40.1
Jason Collins | Brooklyn Nets
AAV: $52k (10-Day) | Set Screens Per 100 Chances: 41.0
Solid Screen %: 82.0 | Set Screen Outcome Efficiency%: 39.9
