Depth, dependency and profile fit

descriptive + model context

Team Depth uses the current governed Expected Minutes allocation and the latest eligible AF-Player observations. Star Dependency combines AF-Player percentile with the player’s governed next-game What If impact percentile within this team. It is model dependency, not causal truth.

WEIGHTED AF-PLAYER52.76

Expected-minute-weighted rated rotation.

OUTSIDE TOP-3 AF43.26

Mechanical role split, not official bench.

RATED MINUTES100%

Share of the governed 240-minute team accounting carrying eligible AF-Player.

TOP-3 ROLE SHARE50%

Expected Minutes concentration only.

Conditional-on-active probabilities

checking

Current rows stay withheld until deterministic NBA-official pre-tip availability is integrated.

MOVEMENT

Release-to-release change

checking

Movement requires two eligible published probability releases from the same season.

Attribution rule

ProbHoops does not infer a cause from a probability delta. A movement driver can be canonical only when deterministic counterfactual provenance reproduces the observed change.
