One category carried De'Anthony Melton and the rest pulled him back: +11.1 from steals, against a career total of +8.6. The peak came in 2022-23, +5.7, 63rd that season and 2499th of 24,555 player-seasons on record. The value came from steals (+11.1), three-pointers (+3.1) and assists (+2.1). It leaked back out through field-goal percentage (-7.0) and turnovers (-2.2). The 152-place difference between his two bases is not noise: it is what he was worth per night set against how many nights he played. 2024-25 is the sharpest single case: -4.4 on totals against +0.3 per game, off 6 games.
