News
Short items as they come in. Longer explainers live in Features.
This is the general news desk. Items land here as they come in: a result that moves a career line, a roster change, a draft date, a rule the league has written down, a figure that has just been beaten. They are short by design — what happened, when, and which page in the record book it touches.
What a news item does not do is explain itself at length. That is the job of Features, where the same subject gets the room to show its working: how a statistic is defined, why two sources disagree, what a column meant in 1974 and means now.
Numbers quoted here are the ones the league or the box score records, and a name links to the career page that holds the full season-by-season line. Nothing on this desk is a prediction and nothing here is betting advice — the betting side of the site lives under Betting guides.
Written and checked by the DatabaseBasketball editorial desk.
Career and season figures are read off the site’s own statistical tables; anything said about an operator is taken from the terms that operator publishes. A field with no source is left empty rather than filled in.
