sportpress_game_leaders):
| col_name | type | description |
| game_id | integer | Game id the overview was asked for (the body does not echo it). |
| team_side | character | Side of the game the row belongs to: home or away (the provider's is_home, or side 1 / 2). |
| competition_team_id | integer | Competition-team id (key space: sportpress competition teams): a team in ONE competition, so a club has a new id every season (Antwerp = 3 in 2021-22, 506 in 2025-26, 541 in 2026-27). uu_team_id is the stable club key. |

| team_short_name | character | Three-letter club code (ANT, MON, ...), stable across seasons in the samples. |
| stat | character | Statistic the leader leads, in the provider's column name (points, total_rebound, value, ...). |

| first_name | character | Given name of the player as entered in the CMS. |
