G: games played
GS: games started
MPG: minutes per game
FG%: field goal percentage
OFF: offensive rebounds per game
DEF: defensive rebounds per game
RPG: rebounds per game (total)
APG: assists per game
SPG: steals per game
BPG: blocks per game
TO: turnovers pergame
PF: personal fouls per game
PPG: points per game
and the numbers are in decimels because they are averages, not totals. so when he scores, for example 38 points, and then 45, and then 21, his average will be:
38 + 45 + 21 = 104 (those are his totals)
104 ÷ 3 = 34.6 (that is his Point AVERAGE)

G = Games
GS = Games Started
MPG = Minutes / game
FG% = Field Goal Percentage
Off = Offensive rebounds
Def = Defensive rebounds
RPG = Rebounds / game
APG = Assists / game
SPG = Steals / game
BPG = blocks / game
TO = Turnovers
PF = Personal Fouls
PPG = Points per game
You get decimals by dividing by number of games to turn the stats into per game averages.
