Player Name: Likely the first column.
AGE: Player’s age.
WARP and Rk: WARP (wins Above Replacement Player) and Rank based on WARP.
HUMBLE and Rk: Humble (Likely a different metric) and Rank based on humble.

Data points like “UD” likely refer to “undrafted”.

Summary

The HTML code represents three related tables: an ongoing table with player statistics and two tables with NBA draft projections for 2008 and 2007. The projections include WARP and “Humble,” along with their respective rankings. The “Humble” statistic is not a standard NBA metric, so it’s likely a proprietary metric used by the analyst or website that generated this data.
