Statistics tab: the head-to-head comparison of both teams, one row per statistic.
Endpoint: GET https://lkl.lt/api/livestream/game-stats/{game_id}
Value
A hoopR_data tibble. One row per line of comparison.all, with the same columns as lkl_summary. group
marks the lines the tab also shows in its shooting (2PT, 3PT, free throws) and main (rebounds, assists, steals)
bar groups; it is null for the rest. A 2007-08 game has only a few lines and a flat lead chart (no event data then).
A body without a comparison gives a zero-row tibble.
Every column below is always present (a zero-row tibble keeps them and their types); an answer
with nothing in it raises hoopR_no_data, as in sportsdataverse-py.
| col_name | type | description |
| game_id | integer | lkl.lt game id (key space: LKL games; the {gameId} of every route). Not sequential by season before 2018-19; not the Genius matchId. A frame parsed from a bare body has a null game_id when the body does not echo it (the runtime stamps it under _request). |
| group | character | Bar group the tab also shows the line in: shooting (2PT, 3PT, free throws) or main (rebounds, assists, steals); null for lines only in the full list. |
| stat | character | English code for the site's Lithuanian label (field_goals, two_pointers, three_pointers, free_throws, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, fouls, points, ...); null for a label this package does not know. |
| label | character | Row label in LITHUANIAN: 'Metimai is zaidimo' = field goals, 'Dvitaskiai metimai' = 2PT, 'Tritaskiai metimai' = 3PT, 'Baudu metimai' = free throws, 'Atkovoti kamuoliai' = rebounds, 'Atkovoti kamuoliai gynyboje' = defensive rebounds, 'Atkovoti kamuoliai puolime' = offensive rebounds, 'Rezultatyvus perdavimai' = assists, 'Perimti kamuoliai' = steals, 'Blokai' = blocks, 'Klaidos' = turnovers, 'Prazangos' = fouls, 'Taskai' = points, 'Taskai po klaidu' = points off turnovers, 'Taskai greitose atakose' = fast-break points, 'Taskai antru bandymu' = second-chance points, 'Atsarginiu zaideju taskai' = bench points. |
| home_value | character | Shooting rows: 'made/attempted' string ('25/35'); counting rows: integer. |
| home_percentage | double | Shooting rows only (absent on counting rows): percentage with ONE decimal and a % sign ('71.4%'). |
| home_graph_length | double | Bar length in percent: shooting rows = the percentage as a string ('71.4'); counting rows = this side's share of the two values, 0-100, a number (43 vs 37 -> 53.75). |
| home_winning | logical | True when this side's bar is highlighted as the better one (both false on a tie). |
| away_value | character | Shooting rows: 'made/attempted' string ('25/35'); counting rows: integer. |
| away_percentage | double | Shooting rows only (absent on counting rows): percentage with ONE decimal and a % sign ('71.4%'). |
| away_graph_length | double | Bar length in percent: shooting rows = the percentage as a string ('71.4'); counting rows = this side's share of the two values, 0-100, a number (43 vs 37 -> 53.75). |
| away_winning | logical | True when this side's bar is highlighted as the better one (both false on a tie). |
Details
Unofficial and unsupported: these are the routes lkl.lt's own game page calls (found in its front-end bundle) and its server-rendered pages. The site's robots.txt allows everything and sets no crawl-delay; the runtime still spaces requests at least 1 s apart. The site's terms were not reviewed; check them before you republish the data.
Coverage: game wrappers serve FINISHED games only (an unfinished game raises hoopR_asset_fetch). The box score,
summary, score line, statistics and leaders answer for every season from 1993-94 (before 2024-25 the scoring splits
and lead statistics are 0). Play-by-play and shots exist from 2024-25 only; an earlier finished game raises
hoopR_no_data. From 2016-17 the results season id is also the Genius LiveStats competition id (see the genius
family) which holds play-by-play for older games; lkl.lt game, team and player ids are lkl.lt's own and do not join
Genius ids. The King Mindaugas Cup shares the routes but is not wrapped. Text fields are Lithuanian.
Errors: hoopR_no_data when lkl.lt has nothing for the request (HTTP 404, an unknown game or standings season, a
season the site's selects do not list, a season without played games, a finished game before 2024-25 asked for
play-by-play or shots); hoopR_bad_request for a game id or season that is not an integer, or HTTP 400 / 422;
hoopR_asset_fetch when the fetch failed or the answer is not the one asked for (an unfinished game, a body or page
for another game or season, an error or changed body, a truncated results list). All inherit hoopR_error. Dates
and times are Lithuanian local (Europe/Vilnius) as the site prints them.
