ESPN FANTASY BASKETBALL HELPER
The simple goal of this project is to allow fantasy managers a simple way to see which NBA players are playing on back to back days. This allows players to maximize the amount of players they have playing in a given week while reducing the amount of pickups they use. This program also allows players to see which players are playing on specifc days that they input. They are given a list containing the players total points, average points, projected ROS Avg Pts, and Injury Status. The user can then input a player number to see stats from a specific players past 10 games.
TO RUN:
- Need all necesary libraries: selenium, numpy, pandas, etc
