These factors are regularized RAPM-style estimates of how the player moves her team's performance relative to league baseline when she's on the floor. ORAPM/DRAPM summarize overall offensive and defensive impact per 100 possessions; the sub-rows approximate impact on effective shooting, turnover margin, rebounding, and free-throw pressure, then unpack where shots come from (profile/deterrence) and how they are finished or contested (making/defense). The offensive components incorporate priors to stabilize estimates, while the defensive components are currently fit without priors.
