FG% is the raw make rate. Colors and vs D1 use an adjusted rate that pulls small samples toward the Division I average, so a zone with few shots shows a smaller gap than its raw FG% suggests. Zones with fewer than 25 attempts are gray: too few shots to say anything. Shots allowed are a rough read on defense: they reflect who a team played as much as how it defended, and opponent three-point shooting is largely luck.
