Popis: The purpose of this study was to look into the game-related statistics that differentiate winning and losing teams in the Turkish Basketball Super League based on game location. The data were obtained from the Turkish Basketball Federation’s official website (https://www.tbf.org.tr/ligler/bsl-2020-2021/maclar). The study involved 258 games during the Turkish Basketball Super League's 2020–2021 season. After obtaining the data from the official website ball possessions, offensive efficiency, and defensive efficiency were calculated using Oliver’s formula. Following that, all game-related statistics except shooting percentages were normalized according to ball possessions. A discrimination analysis was performed on the data. The results of the study showed that 3pt% (SC = .312) and defensive rebounds (SC = .334) were determinants to win home games while 2pm (SC = .416), 2pt% (SC = .364), defensive rebounds (SC = .305) and assists (SC = .365) were determinants to win away games. When all games considered 2pm (SC = ,341), 2pt% (SC = .310), 3pt% (SC = .322), defensive rebounds (SC = .333) and assists (SC = .349) were important game related statistics to win games. Coaches could use the findings of the study to enhance their coaching process and prepare their teams for the upcoming games.
