The dataset covers the 2022-23 NBA regular season (2022-10-18 to 2023-01-20) which contains 691 games in 92 game days. There are 582 active players among the 30 teams. Besides 7 basic statistics, we collected 3 tracking statistics, and 3 advanced statistics. We use tracking statistics to more accurately reflect players' movements on the court, and advanced statistics to more properly represent a player's effectiveness and contribution to the game. Together, these two types of data give us a better understanding of factors that are not visible on the scoreboard.
