Gold = career high (min. 20 games; percentages also need enough attempts). TS% = PTS ÷ (2 × (FGA + 0.44 × FTA)); eFG% gives half a bonus for made threes; +/- = avg point margin per game while on court (from box scores, 2015-16 on). Salaries cover 2009-10 → 2024-25 from Kaggle (Basketball-Reference) and the current season from HoopsHype; “—” means not on record for that season, not $0. Hover a salary for the exact figure. The Career row shows per-game averages (expand it for raw totals); its salary sums recorded seasons only.
