Billy Gabor
G · 4 seasons · 1951-52 – 1954-55
Billy Gabor is the extreme version of a specialist. +1.1 of roto value came from free-throw percentage, yet his career total is only -5.5. No season of his scores higher than 1952-53, at +0.0, 49th that season and 10284th of 24,555 player-seasons on record. Career value accumulated in free-throw percentage (+1.1), and drained away in rebounds (-3.4), field-goal percentage (-1.9) and assists (-0.9). The 707-place difference between his two bases is not noise: it is what he was worth per night set against how many nights he played.
