* Career WS (and OWS/DWS) and VORP are cumulative totals across qualified competitions, with WS/40 recomputed from those sums; PER, BPM (and OBPM/DBPM), and the /82 projections are minute-weighted averages, and TS%, 3PAr, FTr, AST'd%, and TOV% pool the underlying totals. Ratings, usage, AST%, and the rebound/steal/block rates aren't pooled across competitions.
