How teammates shot with the player on the floor and off it, in the games she played; her own shots count on neither side. Lineups are rebuilt from the play-by-play (99% of the team's attempts placed), regular season, players with 50 or more teammate attempts on. A rise can mean she opens shots up, or only who she shares the floor with: starters play beside starters.
