What stands out

  • Jokic's 51.2 combined PRA-per-36 is the top such rate across all 30 teams in the sample.
  • He is also the team's minutes leader at 7,429.0 total minutes.
  • Denver posted the highest latest-season scoring in the sample at 121.4 points per game.
Reading note

The 'top contributor' is the player with the most total minutes for the team, which for Denver coincides with its best player. PRA-per-36 sums points, rebounds, and assists per 36 minutes and is a raw box rate, not an impact metric, so the cross-team ranking describes box production, not measured value. ppg_latest_season is a single-season team average while the rest of the sample spans three seasons; pace_proxy is a proxy, not official possession-based pace. The manifest is descriptive_only with no schedule or opponent adjustment.

Load-Bearing Index (most-indispensable player)
Elo on/off: Nikola Jokić (delta_winprob +0.5822); raw with/without: Aaron Gordon (delta_win_rate +0.1818); agreement=False
on/off net rating delta +23.713; n_active=36, n_missed=44
both estimators carry the ROSTER CONFOUND both source files label explicitly: why a player missed is entangled with injury clustering, rest, blowout pulls, and replacement lineup -- none controlled. NOT a causal player-impact estimate.; the feeds cover DIFFERENT seasons (Elo on/off = 2024-25; raw with/without = 2025-26), so agreement is DIRECTIONAL corroboration, not a paired estimate.; estimator (a) is win prob vs a league-average opponent on a neutral floor; estimator (b) is raw team win-rate active-vs-missed. The two axes are related but not the same scale.; Per team, the win-prob dependence on its single most-indispensable player, under two independent estimators, with a cross-method agreement flag.

Highest/lowest scoring pairing (pooled 2023-24..2025-26)
highest: vs ATL mean_total 246.33 (n=6); lowest: vs BOS mean_total 212.33 (n=6)
NOT a prediction of any future matchup (describes games already played); NOT a home/away split (per-player table carries no venue flag); NOT opponent-adjusted / strength-of-schedule (raw pooled means only); pairing reported only where n_meetings >= 2
