dedicated feed

The same five-a-side, four-quarter game as basketball, served as its own resource because the NBA carries a deeper data model: play-by-play, per-quarter splits and richer player statistics than a generic basketball feed exposes.

The model

What NBA needs that a generic model does not give it.

Every sport gets its own entities and its own scoring shape. We do not force one structure onto all of them.
