Team game totals of both teams: shooting, rebounds, assists, turnovers, fouls, paint, bench and fast-break points.
Endpoint: GET https://lkl.lt/api/livestream/boxscore/{game_id}
Value
A hoopR_data tibble. Two rows (home first). The body keys the totals by team id with no side marker, so
team_side comes from the game page the runtime stamps (null on a body without the stamp). Percentages are 0-100
floats (the site sends two-decimal strings); time_leading is seconds (the site sends a string).
points_off_turnovers, fast_break_points, second_chance_points and points_in_paint are 0 before 2024-25 (not
tracked). Per-period points are in lkl_period_scores. A body without gameStatistics 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). |
| team_id | integer | lkl.lt team id (key space: lkl.lt clubs, STABLE across seasons and renamings: 6 = Rytas). Joins lkl_game_info home_team_id / away_team_id; not the Genius team id. Null on a frame parsed from a bare body. |
| team_side | character | Side of the game the row belongs to: home or away (the game page's teams_info side; the box score, leaders and plays say home / away, and gameStatistics is keyed by team id so the runtime supplies the side). |
| points | integer | Team points: the final score (the capture banks finished games only). |
| seconds_played | integer | Summed playing time of all the team's players in seconds (12000 = 5 x 40:00; 13500 with one overtime). |
| field_goals_made_total | integer | Field goals made, 2PT + 3PT. |
| field_goals_attempted_total | integer | Field goals attempted, 2PT + 3PT. |
| field_goals_made_2pt | integer | Two-point field goals made. |
| field_goals_attempted_2pt | integer | Two-point field goals attempted. |
| field_goals_made_3pt | integer | Three-point field goals made. |
| field_goals_attempted_3pt | integer | Three-point field goals attempted. |
| free_throws_made | integer | Free throws made by the team in the game (count). |
| free_throws_attempted | integer | Free throws attempted by the team in the game (count). |
| offensive_rebounds | integer | Team offensive rebounds in the game (count). |
| defensive_rebounds | integer | Team defensive rebounds in the game (count). |
| total_rebounds | integer | Team rebounds, offensive + defensive (count). |
| assists | integer | Team assists in the game (count). |
| steals | integer | Team steals in the game (count). |
| blocks | integer | Blocks made by the team in the game (count). |
| blocks_received | integer | Shots of this team that were blocked. |
| turnovers | integer | Team turnovers in the game (count). |
| fouls | integer | Fouls committed. |
| fouls_on | integer | Fouls drawn (fouls committed on this team). |
| efficiency | integer | Team efficiency rating (Efektyvumas), a PIR-style index (points + rebounds + assists + steals + blocks + fouls drawn - missed shots - turnovers - shots blocked - fouls). The exact formula is unverified: game 11590 home gives 121 where that formula gives 122. |
| points_off_turnovers | integer | Points off the opponent's turnovers; 0 on the 2007-08 sample (not tracked then). |
| fast_break_points | integer | Fast-break points; 0 on the 2007-08 sample. |
| second_chance_points | integer | Second-chance points (after an offensive rebound); 0 on the 2007-08 sample. |
| points_in_paint | integer | Points in the paint; 0 on the 2007-08 sample. |
| bench_points | integer | Points by players who did not start. |
| biggest_lead | integer | This team's biggest lead in points (0 when it never led). |
| biggest_scoring_run | integer | This team's longest unanswered scoring run, in points. |
| lead_changes | integer | Lead changes in the game (the same value on both rows). |
| tie_results | integer | Times the score was tied (the same value on both rows). |
| time_leading | integer | Seconds this team led during the game (the site sends it as a string; 1892 = 31:32). |
| field_goals_percentage | double | Field-goal percentage, 0-100 float (the site sends a two-decimal string). |
| field_goals_2pt_percentage | double | Two-point percentage, 0-100 float (the site sends a two-decimal string). |
| field_goals_3pt_percentage | double | Three-point percentage, 0-100 float (the site sends a two-decimal string). |
| free_throws_percentage | double | Free-throw percentage, 0-100 float (the site sends a two-decimal string). |
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.
