Aren’t some of those stats explained by the emphasis on 3-pt shooting?
eFG% is up because of more (sometimes better) 3-pt shooters.
Teams pass it around the perimeter looking for a 3, hence fewer turnovers.
And hence fewer free throws.
Fewer assists because guys are often creating their own 3.
And while less direct, an emphasis on 3-or shooting seems to put less emphasis on rebounding effort, which is what it takes to bring down offensive boards.
