For a particular custom basketball game, a player receives a personal warning upon accumulating at least 3 fouls within any 12 minute quarter and complete ejection from the court upon accumulating 5 such fouls at any time during the 48 minute game. For any single 48 minute game, missing between 2 minutes and 4 minutes of playtime counts as one-third of an absence, missing between 4 minutes and 10 minutes of playtime counts as half an absence, and missing more than 10 minutes counts as a full absence. However, a basketball player may postpone playtime to make up for up to 3 minutes of unexcused absence at another time.
The table contains descriptions of the unexcused absences of 5 players of a particular custom basketball game. Assume that in each case the basketball player had no other unexcused absences and made up no other time. In the table, select a description of a basketball player who qualified for a personal warning but not a complete ejection, and select a description of a basketball player who qualified for a complete ejection. Make only two selections, one in each column.

3 mins to read the data is a lot. We need to peruse the data and make sense of it, not learn it. Often test takers mistake understanding for memorising or taking notes. When a list of data is given regarding various parameters, you can simply skim through it and come to it if needed. Here I make a mental note that there are conditions given for personal warning and ejection. What they are, I will see properly if the questions asks. Also, there are conditions given for 1/3rd absence, 1/2 absence, full absence. Fine. I will come to it if I need it.
Then we go to the question to see what it is we need.

I do not know. I know what unexcused absences (when you don't take permission for a legit reason but are missing from the game) are but how they are connected to fouls I don't know. As a non-basketball player, I don't understand this, but the question doesn't require me to. The point is - can you answer what is asked?
For that, the entire discussion on unexcused absences is irrelevant. Now will you get bogged down by a couple of sentences when facing this question on the GMAT or will you jump to the question and try to figure out what it is that they are asking. Often there is a ton of irrelevant info given in DI questions.
