How this works
Value compares his per-game numbers with the players who play the most minutes, about those on rosters in a 12-team league: 0 is that group’s average, +1.0 is one standard deviation better, and the nine categories are added up. FG% and FT% count shot volume, and turnovers count against him. Windows are calendar days ending today (US Eastern).
