Games Available denotes the number of games for which that statistic is available for every player who played in the game.
For a specific game, some stats may be partially available, and complete data may be available for some players but not others.
Incomplete season totals are displayed in blue.
Known deviations from Basketball-Reference.com are displayed in red with their "official" total in ().

Note: BOXTOP statistics agree with NBA.com and Basketball-Reference.com game logs for most of the discrepancies shown above. None of the available game logs match the season totals for FGM for Havlicek, Howell and K.C. Jones, but my totals are closer to the accepted season totals for Havlicek FTM and Howell FGM than other sources. More research is needed to resolve these issues.
