Why Norman Powell is rated +1.0

  • +1.0 means his teams score about 1.0 more points per 100 possessions with him than with an average player in his spot, after we account for who he plays with and against. That's the 114th best of the 337 players we rate.
  • Most of it is defense: +0.6 there (105th of 337), +0.4 on offense (130th of 337).
  • It's built on 1,950 minutes from this season and last, and the recent games count more.
  • He's about where he started the season (+1.1).
  • He's playing about 29 minutes a game for Chicago, and last season he played like a scoring wing.

How the forecast works, and how often it's right

How it works: every season-end rating since 2005-06, and what the same players did one to five seasons later. The typical change only counts players still in the league, so the line is a little rosier than reality for older players; the rotation-player row shows how many dropped out.
