Archetype — how these are computed →
Playmaker
A distributor who creates offense for teammates. Judged on the volume and rate of assists, not on the share of points that are assists.
Why he earned it — his rank among forwards

All fit scores
Fit scores run 0–100: how strongly this player matches each mold, blended from his league
percentiles in that archetype's key stats (the bars above show those percentiles — e.g.
"98th" = better than 98% of the league). A player only earns a tag when the score clears
that archetype's minimum floor — full formulas in
the archetypes guide.
