Also, 13 skill-related indices were obtained for each player from 1981-82 cumulative statistics; (a) percentage of games played, (b) field goals made, (c) field goals attempted, (d) field goal percentage, (e) free throws made, (f) free throws attempted, (g) free throw percentage, (h) total rebounds, (i) rebounds per game, (3) total points, (k) points per game, (1) total assists, and (m) assists per game.
