I built a searchable Summer League stats database for draft fans
With Summer League starting up soon, I wanted to share something I built for other draft/Summer League junkies.
I run nbadraft.app, and I recently added a Summer League stats section because I’ve always felt like detailed Summer League coverage is a weird hole on the internet. Box scores exist in scattered places, but I’ve never found a good way to search across players, games, seasons, teams, and advanced stats like you can easily do for other basketball events.
Main Summer League page:
https://nbadraft.app/stats/summer-league
Explorer/filter page for player, game, and season searches:
https://nbadraft.app/stats/summer-league/explorer?subject=players
Example game page with team/player shot charts:
https://nbadraft.app/stats/summer-league/2022/games/1147
The goal is to make it easier to answer questions like: who was the most statistically prolific player in LVSL last year, how does a prospect’s performance today compare historically, and how does a player’s Summer League production stack up against other lottery picks at the same position?
For example, you can filter last year’s LVSL by position, minutes, usage, shooting efficiency, or compare a lottery guard’s Summer League output against past lottery guards.
I’ll be updating it daily once games start. Would genuinely appreciate feedback, feature requests, bug reports, or anything that would make it more useful for people here.
