Functional size roles are inferred from each player’s height relative to the other four teammates
in his five-man lineups. Listed positions are shown separately for traditional basketball context.
A player’s functional size role does not necessarily indicate his offensive position or defensive matchup.
On, Off, and Swing are raw team point differential per 48 minutes. WF RAPM is a first-pass adjusted
plus-minus estimate that attempts to account for teammates and opponents.
