I was looking into the formula for TS% and I was wondering where the 50, and .44 multiples come into play in the equation? What do they represent?

TS% True Shooting Percentage calculates what a player’s shooting percentage would be if we accounted for free throws and 3-pointers. True Shooting Percentage = (Total points x 50) divided by [(FGA + (FTA x 0.44)]
