- eropple 10y agoI don't operate in this space professionally at this point, so I steer clear of the paid options, but everything I listed in that post is a decent starting point. For pure statistics in other sports the Sports-Reference APIs are fine (though I'd rather pull down the data, and the Lahman database is better for baseball); I don't have any good play-by-play data for the NBA aside from commercial sources. I used to have some affordable, but kinda crappy, NBA play-by-play/shot-chart data, but if you're interested in that I'd just be ready to open the wallet.
