Details
Unofficial: the JSON API behind www.basketligaen.dk, the Danish men's basketball league (Basketligaen, series code DBL). The site runs on the Sportality platform (the vendor behind the SHL and HockeyAllsvenskan wrappers). The terms page was not read; check it before you republish the data.
Stats provider: genius-basketball, a relay of Genius Sports LiveStats. The Genius match, team and person ids in play-by-play, box scores and stats tables (game_id, team_id, player_id, all Int64) join the genius family; the platform uuids (game, team, athlete, ssgt) are not Genius ids and exist only on this site. The Genius ORG code of Denmark is not exposed.
Season = the END year (2026 = 2025/26) everywhere; the runtime maps it, with game_type ('regular' or 'finals', the playoffs), to the site's ssgt (season + series + game type) through layout-info. Schedules, standings and season tables start in 2002/03; game-level data (play-by-play with shot x/y, box scores, team stats) starts in 2023/24.
Source defects the runtime refuses (
hoopR_asset_fetch): an unfinished game or a truncated play-by-play feed, a box score or feed that names another game, a cut stats table. The 2002/03 regular-season schedule lists 109 finished games where its own standings count 110: a source gap.Personal data is removed from every body: birth dates, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, addresses and contact blocks.
No women's league: Dameligaen has its own domain (dameligaen.dk), which answers 401 to anonymous requests.
Errors are classed conditions:
hoopR_no_data(404, an empty gameday body,{}/[], a table with no rows, a season or game type layout-info does not list),hoopR_bad_request(a bad argument, a 400 / 422) andhoopR_asset_fetch(an error envelope or non-JSON 200, a body for another game / team / athlete / ssgt, an unfinished game or truncated play-by-play, a cut stats table, any other non-2xx; a 500 is the site's answer for an unknown uuid and is not retried), all inheritinghoopR_error. Wrappers raise; they never return an empty frame.
