Scoring Games

You can have Hoopsalytics score games for you, or do it yourself to save money and have greater consistency. Scoring games yourself is pretty straightforward - every event in the game is logged at that time in the video when it occurred, and can be assigned a player, a location, as well as different attributes.

For example, a three point make can be categorized as an uncontested catch-and-shoot, with a shot quality score of 7. The amount of detail present is totally customizable, and Hoopsalytics lets you choose from various stock scoring interfaces to get started.
