Play-by-Play data with shot distance?

Post by beowulf »

Hi,

Is there a current data source for play-by-play logs that includes the shot location and/or the shot distance? Here is what I have found so far:

- BasketballValue has current play-by-play data, but no shot location information
- BasketballGeek has great shot location information, but is not current (last data from 2009-10 season)
- ESPN has great play-by-play data, but is not available all in one source (i.e. would have to visit each individual game log)

Thanks!

Maybe talk to kpascual. Looks like he has that kind of database. See his thread:
