About Us
Ball is life, right? We sure think so!
There's not many more things in life more beautiful than basketball itself!
First off, thank you for viewing our site. If you're new to bballhype, welcome! If you have been with us before, welcome back!
This all started with a passion for basketball, stats, and turning that into some sort of digestible instagram post. Over time, it evolved and grew, and we began to think how we can take that another step. This lead us here making shot charts of your favorite basketball players. Whether it's a game, a season, or an entire career, we want to take that beautiful data and visualize it in a way that you can hang up in any room.
Our Process
Using coding languages and scripts, we tap into NBA's data in order to get precise locations of shots for each player. We then touch it up to make it look aesthetically pleasing. We verify each shot chart with a few other databases to make sure that each field goal made (each dot on the print) is counted.
