She has .479 win shares per 48 minutes (again, it's an advanced stat and I'm not sure how it's derived).
PER (the first one) is a stat invented by then-ESPN, now Memphis Grizzlies executive John Hollinger. In the NBA context, average is 15; borderline all-star around 20; superstar 25 or so. 30+ is LeBron, Steph Curry territory. Think of it as a super box score stat -- it takes all box score stats and adjusts it for minutes played and the pace of the game. It's a black box as to how it's actually derived.
Here's how win shares are calculated in the NBA: http://www.basketball-reference.com/about/ws.html
