This is a script for visualization NBA games from raw SportVU logs.

If you admire both Spurs' and Warriors' ball movement, Brad Stevens' playbook, or just miss KD in OKC you'll find this entertaining.

1. Choose any NBA game and download corresponding raw SportVU game logs (.json file) from this repo.
2. Clone this repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/linouk23/NBA-Player-Movements

3. Generate an animation for the play by running the following script:

$ python3 main.py [email protected] --event=140

required named arguments:
  --path PATH    a path to json file to read events from

optional arguments:
  --event EVENT  an index of the event to create animation to (the indexing
                 start with zero, if you index goes beyond out the total
                 number of events (plays), we will show you the last one of
                 the game)
