Bob Elliott
C · 3 seasons · 1978-79 – 1980-81
One category carried Bob Elliott and the rest pulled him back: +1.5 from turnovers, against a career total of -10.9. The peak came in 1980-81, -3.2, 205th that season and 17572nd of 24,555 player-seasons on record. The value came from turnovers (+1.5) and field-goal percentage (+0.2). It leaked back out through free-throw percentage (-2.6), steals (-2.4) and points (-2.1). The 418-place difference between his two bases is not noise: it is what he was worth per night set against how many nights he played.
