Load cleaned WNBA Stats API season rosters from the data repo
Description
Loads season-level WNBA team rosters scraped from the WNBA
Stats API. One row per athlete-team-season triple. Backed by the
wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that reads raw JSONs from
wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the
wnba_stats_rosters release tag.
Loads season-level WNBA coaching staff data scraped from the
WNBA Stats API. One row per coach-team-season triple. Backed by the
wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that reads raw JSONs from
wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the
wnba_stats_coaches release tag.
![[Deprecated]](../help/figures/lifecycle-deprecated.svg)
Loads season-level WNBA
player statistics. Deprecated: the wnba_stats_player_season_stats
release tag (R-scraped, Base/Advanced/Misc/Scoring/Usage/
Defense measures) is superseded by the wnba_stats_leaguedash tag
(Python-scraped parameter cube, same 6 measure types plus player_bio
and a wide player_master mega). This function reshapes the cube back
into the old stacked-by-measure_type contract for compatibility; call
the cube's player_stats_* / player_master assets directly with
load_wnba_stats_leaguedash() for the full surface.
Loads season-level WNBA
5-man lineup statistics (leaguedashlineups-style outputs).
Deprecated: the wnba_stats_lineups release tag (R-scraped,
Base/Advanced measures, 5-man only) is superseded by the
wnba_stats_leaguedash tag (Python-scraped parameter cube: 6 measure
types x 2/3/4/5-man). This function reshapes the cube back into the old
5-man Base+Advanced contract for compatibility; call the cube's
lineups_* / lineups_master assets directly with
load_wnba_stats_leaguedash() for the full surface.
Loads season-level team
statistics (leaguedashteamstats-style outputs). Deprecated: the
wnba_stats_team_season_stats release tag (R-scraped, Base/
Advanced/Misc/Scoring/Defense/Opponent measures) is superseded
by the wnba_stats_leaguedash tag (Python-scraped parameter cube, same
6 measures plus Four Factors and a wide team_master mega). This
function reshapes the cube back into the old stacked-by-measure_type
contract for compatibility; call the cube's team_stats_* /
team_master assets directly with
load_wnba_stats_leaguedash() for the full surface.
Loads season-level WNBA
standings (leaguestandingsv3-style outputs). One row per team-season.
Deprecated: the wnba_stats_standings release tag (R-scraped) is
superseded by the wnba_stats_leaguedash tag's standings asset
(same underlying endpoint/params, Python-scraped) — this is close to a
pure passthrough.
Loads season-level WNBA draft picks scraped from the WNBA
Stats API (drafthistory-style outputs). One row per pick. Backed by
the wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that reads raw JSONs from
wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the
wnba_stats_draft release tag.
Loads shot events scraped from the WNBA Stats API. One row
per shot attempt with legacy court coordinates, action/sub type,
distance, and made/missed result, carried through from the V3
play-by-play feed (not shotchartdetail). Backed by the
wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that reads raw JSONs from
wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the
wnba_stats_shots release tag.
Loads the per-game inactive player list scraped from the
WNBA Stats API – the InactivePlayers result set of
boxscoresummaryv2. One row per inactive athlete-game pair, not a full
per-game roster: use load_wnba_stats_player_game_logs() for the
athletes who did play. Backed by the wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline
that reads raw JSONs from wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes
parquet/rds artifacts to the wnba_stats_game_rosters release tag.
Coverage is thin by construction because the upstream result set is
thin: stats.wnba.com reports inactives for only a fraction of games,
and most heavily for 2006-2008 and 2021 onward. Season row counts range
from 1 (1997) to 610 across 184 games (2026); 2009-2012 carry fewer
than 10 rows each. A season with almost no rows is upstream sparsity,
not a download failure.
Loads game-level officials data scraped from the WNBA Stats
API (boxscoresummaryv2-style outputs). One row per official-game pair.
Backed by the wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that reads raw JSONs
from wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the
wnba_stats_officials release tag.
Loads per-player per-game logs scraped from
stats.wnba.com/leaguegamelog?PlayerOrTeam=P (one row per
athlete-game pair: minutes, shooting splits, rebounds, steals, blocks,
turnovers, personal fouls, plus/minus). Backed by the
wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that publishes parquet/rds artifacts
to the wnba_stats_player_game_logs release tag.
Loads season-level WNBA schedules scraped from
stats.wnba.com/leaguegamefinder (regular season + playoffs combined,
pre-rejoined home/away). Backed by the wehoop-wnba-stats-data
pipeline that publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the
wnba_stats_schedules release tag.
Loads season-level WNBA play-by-play (V3), supplied by
wnba_pbp() in the upstream compile script. Backed by the
wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that publishes parquet/rds artifacts to
the wnba_stats_pbp release tag.

play-by-play – one row per possession, with the on-court 5-man lineups
for both teams, shooting/rebounding/turnover splits, and the possession
start type. Backed by the wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that reads
raw JSONs from wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes csv.gz/parquet/rds
artifacts to the wnba_stats_possessions release tag.
