In basketball, true shooting percentage is an advanced statistic that measures a player's efficiency at shooting the ball. It is intended to more accurately calculate a player's shooting than field goal percentage, free throw percentage, and three-point field goal percentage taken individually. Two- and three-point field goals and free throws are all considered in its calculation. It is abbreviated TS%.
It is calculated by:

{\displaystyle TS\%={\frac {PTS}{2(FGA+(0.44\times FTA))}}}
where:
PTS = points scored,
FGA = field goal attempts,
FTA = free throw attempts
National Basketball Association
Several players in the National Basketball Association (NBA) record consistently high TS%, demonstrating their ability to efficiently score points for their teams. Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors and Kevin Durant of the Phoenix Suns have career true shooting percentages of 62.6% and 61.9%, respectively, making them two of the most efficient scorers in NBA history.
In addition, big men like Rudy Gobert of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Clint Capela of the Atlanta Hawks have also posted high TS% due to their ability to score efficiently around the basket and convert free throws at a high rate.
In the WNBA, Sylvia Fowles and Jonquel Jones have recorded career true shooting percentages of 63.6% and 61.7% respectively.
