  2. Restructuring and transformation is what can be spotted everywhere today. We all are in a race of being not only better, but the best and this isn’t only about humans, it is about different markets, sectors, industries, competitors, and who not? Like said above, the sports industry also has intra-industry competitions and each sport, its association, and stakeholders want it to be the best. We have different governing bodies for different sports internationally. For Cricket, we have International Cricket Council (ICC), for Baseball it is International Baseball Federation (IBAF), for Basketball it is National Basketball Association (NBA), etc. If we start thinking of data analytics, then yes, it is there in the sports industry and it has started seeping deeply into all the sports gradually. Specifically talking of Basketball, there has been a whole new game introduced then the conventional one, after the analytics stepped into the shoes of Basketball.

  3. Conventionally, the NBA data merely included the assists made and points scored, but detail collection was difficult, unlike now. Today, all the basketball teams have data analysts in the team to work along with the team coaches and identify the talents and weaknesses of the players. The game of basketball is one that cannot be easily analyzed because there are continuous player movements. To simplify that, all the basketball courts are now equipped with video systems that are able to track each movement happening during the matches. After analyzing those video clips carefully, the coaches can study in detail the leg movements, some specific habits and activities of players individually and then with the help of data analysts, decide on the strategies to be formulated.

  4. After the advent and introduction of analytics in the NBA, it has become simpler to work upon the playing condition of the NBA players. With the artificial intelligence and machine learning models, it is easy to determine which player needs to rest for the next matches so that the performance is not affected. Despite the fans not liking this pattern, yet it is important to let their favorite players rest because if they won’t, then they may suffer an injury which will further affect their performance for a longer duration. The fans are upset that they are getting so expensive tickets to see their favorite players play live in the court, and then they are not there because they are asked to take an off and rest. Yet, even the best NBA teams give their success credit to data analytics. The NBA basketball data is suggestive of the fact that the players themselves use sleep monitors and tech-wearable, which help them in tracking down their level of fatigue, stress, and anxiety. This way the players themselves try to avoid being injured. One of the biggest additions by analytics to the NBA is the rise in the number of three-point shots. If we have a look at the NBA data, an average team scores only 18.4 three-point shots per game.

  5. This is for a course of 5 years, from 2012 to 2017. This led to the encouragement of the NBA players who were the best at giving three-pointers, so that these shots happen as much as possible in order to encourage winning. NBA analytics is also at ease in identifying which player is great at defense and which is not. Analytics though would have the desired effect only when the data is just as trustworthy.
