Get this player's stats from the API

Every roster player has a slug. /api/basketball/players/slug/{slug} returns the profile, season averages and totals for each league, season and stage, and the latest games with the player's line.

player.py
import requests

API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"
player = requests.get(
    "https://sportapi.ai/api/basketball/players/slug/joel-embiid",
    headers={"X-API-Key": API_KEY},
    timeout=20,
).json()["data"]

print(player["name"], "-", player["team"]["name"])
for s in player["seasons"]:
    if s["league"]["slug"] == "nba":
        print(s["season"], s["stage"], s["games"], "games", s["pts"], "pts", s["reb"], "reb", s["ast"], "ast")
for g in player["last_games"][:5]:
    print(g["start"][:10], g["opponent"]["abbreviation"], g["result"], g["score"], g["pts"], "pts")

The API documentation lists every basketball endpoint. The same key works for the NBA, WNBA, EuroLeague, NCAA and the other leagues, and for football too.
