Analytics Articles

Post by rbellotti »

Hi, I am wondering if any members can provide the titles or subjects of the most influential basketball analytics articles and books that they have come across over the years. I am especially interested in work you feel broke new ground within the industry. Thanks so much.

You could look at archive of research papers presented at Sloan Sports Analytics Conference. Or the academic sports analytics journals. Or query Google Scholar.

Lots done on many subjects. I've occasionally referenced and perhaps reviewed academic articles in past threads somewhere here. Almost nobody responds and few have probably bothered to read this work. Search: Sloan, SSAC, research, etc.

Could even just query regular google for specific topics. You should do your own research; but if you mention specific topics, maybe you'll get suggestions.


There is a fairly extensive list of some literature links briefly mentioned here fwiw:

https://link.springer.com/article/10.10 ... 22-04647-x


Could look for links / referencea in the "Starting Point..." article by Pelton, Kubatko, et. al.

If you dig, it would be easy to find articles to fill dozens or hundreds of hours of reading. I've done that a number of times, but not recently.

Read 10 articles and there will probably by 50-200 references. Follow some to dozens and hundreds more. It can help to know exactly what you want and / or to take leaps and 2 minute looks to decide whether to read closely, skim or skip.


And / or use this link

A lot of the original research was either posted on the previous versions of this forum or on 82games.com

http://www.82games.com/articles.htm

At the top of this forum is a link to the archive of what could be recovered from the SonicsCentral version of this forum, so that may have some interesting information. https://www.apbr.org/metrics/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8024

And then some of the more formal research was then compiled and submitted to Sloan.
