The Evolution of Basketball with Data Science
Ivana Šerić
For the last couple of decades, most industries have grown to take advantage of the information gained from data collection. As that happened, professional sports teams started to catch on. Baseball took the lead thanks to the amount of data collected over the years, which dates to the 1800s, but a lot of other professional sports followed and put more attention to their data collection. With technological advancements, particularly high-speed cameras, storage capacities and image recognition, more dynamic sports started to collect richer and richer data. The insights derived from this data started shifting the way the game is played and the way players are evaluated. This talk will take you through the evolution of data science in basketball and give examples of how data is shifting the way teams make decisions on and off the court.
