Points off Turnovers. Team A commits a turnover. Team B shoots on the ensuing possession, misses, but scores on an offensive rebound. Obviously this goes down as 2nd chance points, but is it also considered points off turnover.
 
Found this definition for points off turnovers:

Points Off Turnovers are calculated as any points scored on the possession immediately following a turnover by the other team.

Found on another site that every offensive rebound is considered a new possession. So the answer to your question is, no, not points off turnover.
 
I miss the old days of SJ.com when it seemed like 80 percent of discussion was nerdy stat-keeping stuff from prep games.
Love every second of it.
