Season data: Sumitro Datta NBA and BAA records. CC0 1.0 (archive publisher listing).

• Regular-season team stints from 1946-47 through 2025-26. Separate ABA records and combined multi-team player rows are excluded. The withdrawn 1954-55 Baltimore Bullets season has no recorded team W/L in this archive and is excluded.
• Counting totals become per-game statistics using recorded appearances. A player needs 10 appearances and 8 minutes per game when minutes were recorded. Before 1951-52, qualification uses appearances and minutes stay blank.
• Unrecorded statistics stay blank, including early minutes, rebounds, steals, blocks, turnovers and three-point data. A shooting percentage with no attempts stays blank.
• Positions use the recorded season position. Where it is missing, the recorded career position supplies broad eligibility. No exact season position is guessed.
• Stable Basketball-Reference IDs identify players across seasons and teams. Former team names are retained. Renamed clubs share a franchise; unrelated defunct clubs stay separate. Original Charlotte history belongs to Charlotte, while New Orleans has its own franchise.
• The archive publisher lists this dataset as CC0 on Kaggle and identifies Basketball-Reference as its source. DreamDraft filters regular-season club stints, derives per-game statistics and maps roster eligibility. The published archive license does not establish ownership of upstream rights or license team marks and photographs.

Saved drafts from the previous catalogue retain SportsDataverse hoopR data, derived from ESPN, published under CC BY 4.0. DreamDraft filtered game records, aggregated team stints, mapped positions and calculated per-game statistics. Those saved drafts keep their original data and scoring model.
