Not surprisingly James appears on the list several times, while in general it was dominated by guards and wings. That's to be expected given the perimeter-oriented style of play that rules the NBA today. 

It should be noted that DeRozan wasn't allowed to pick himself for any of the categories, hence not choosing himself under the "mid-range jumper" attribute.
