Ranked among NBA players who qualify (PTS, REB, AST, STL, BLK: 20+ games; TS%: 20+ games, 5+ FGA) that season; only the top 50 are shown. How each stat qualifies: glossary.
| PTS: Points scored — a free throw is worth 1, a shot inside the arc 2, beyond it 3. | REB: Missed shots the player collected, at either end of the floor. | AST: Passes that led directly to a team-mate's basket. | STL: Possessions taken off the opponent by picking off a pass or a dribble. | BLK: Opponent shots swatted away before they reached the rim. | TS%: Scoring per shot with threes and free throws counted: PTS ÷ (2 × (FGA + 0.44 × FTA)). League average sits near 58%. | MIN: Minutes on the floor. | GP: Games the player appeared in, however briefly. | ||
