Colors and vs D1 compare each zone’s FG% straight to the Division I average there, in percentage points. Zones with fewer than 15 attempts are striped: the color is the real FG%, but it rests on few shots, so a hot or cold streak can swing it. Hover a zone on the chart for its numbers. Early in 2026–27, D1 averages are 2025–26's until the new season has enough shots. Shots allowed are a rough read on defense: they reflect who a team played as much as how it defended, and opponent three-point shooting is largely luck.
