Courtside

A terminal UI for following NBA games, box scores, and standings.

Browse the day's games, drill into a live or finished game for its full box score and play-by-play, jump to any date to see past results, and check the league standings. Games in progress refresh on their own while you watch.

Courtside pulls directly from the NBA's public JSON endpoints via nba-sdk :

cdn.nba.com — the live "today" scoreboard

— the live "today" scoreboard stats.nba.com — scoreboard by date, traditional box scores, play-by-play, and league standings
