Plus-minus can be an indicator of potential playing time for bench players. A high plus-minus is suggestive of a player who helps his team win when he is on the fllor even if he does not put up great individual stats. If you are looking for players who could be in line for increased playing time, plus-minus can be used as one data point to decide if you should add them.

This is a great stat when scouting back-up point guards who may be in line for increased playing time. A player with a high assist rate is likely to produce a lot of assists with more minutes.

Free throw rate is valuable when you are looking for players who consistently get to the free line. Players who go to the free throw line often will have less variation game-to-game in their scoring than players who rely more heavily on field goals. This stat is more useful for head-to-head leagues and daily fantasy than it is for rotisserie or points-only leagues.

This is the flipside of assist rate. A player with a high turnover rate will produce more TOS, the more minutes he plays.

TS% is a good to for helping fantasy basketball players determine when a player's shooting is truly harmful to their teams.

This stat can be helpful to identify potential fantasy stars who don't see a lot of playing time. If a player sees the ball often when he is on the floor, it is possible he will see the ball often with more minutes. Players with low minutes but who are high in usage percenage in addition to effective field goal percentage and true shooting percentage (i.e. they score efficiently) are great sleeper candidates.
