NBA lineups that win together
On-court units: every 5-man lineup from pbpstats.com play-by-play, rolled up into 3-man and 2-man combinations — minutes together, plus-minus and points per 100 possessions (net rating). Starting units: the team's record and ATS when those players all started (ESPN box scores, since 2016-17). Every team page has its own lineup section.
Best on-court units — 2025-26 regular season
Minimums: 5-man 100 min, 3-man 300 min, 2-man 500 min (lower early in a season).
Starting units with the best records (since 2016-17)
Who matters most: team margin with vs without (2025-26+)
Average point margin in games the player played minus games he missed (3+ missed). Missed games are often against different opponents, so read this as a signal, not a precise value.
