What is this

Five man groups ranked by a net rating that accounts for sample size, plus what happens to the team when each player sits.

Wilson, at -7.8 points per 100 possessions across 5 minutes and 11 possessions. Ratings are adjusted toward the team average by sample size, so a lineup with few possessions is not ranked on noise.
