Inactive Teammate Tool – NBA
Full 2025 NBA season stats are now available on Substack here.
Below I have provided an example of the data.
This tool is comparing player performance with and without a specific inactive teammate for the 2025-26 NBA season, specifically minutes played, DraftKings points, and FanDuel points.
This tool is useful for identifying the impact of a specific player being inactive. Filter the Teammate column for the player that is out, and you can quickly see how the rest of the team is impacted
A positive difference means that players’ stat increases when the specific teammate is out (plays 0 minutes).
Details on the methodology are provided below the data.
Methodology: The Difference calculated is the difference between the ‘Without’ stats (games that the specific teammate did not appear in) and the ‘With’ stats (games that the specific teammate did appear in). So, a positive value means the statistic increases when the teammate is out.
If a Player-Teammate combination does not appear in the inactive teammate tool, the player has not played a game without that teammate.
