Why Ticha Penicheiro ranks #48 in Basketball
Ticha Penicheiro ranks 48th among Basketball athletes on GOAT Rank and 375th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 86, Longevity 86, Honours 82, Statistics 86. Those categories are normalised against the full Basketball reference universe of 399 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1998–2012 with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1999, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes wnba titles 1, assist titles 7, all-star selections 4, career assists 2599.
Immediately ahead sits Patrick Ewing on 83.4, a gap of 0.2 points. Directly behind is Nikola Jokić on 86.2. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
