Hoops Nightly

Tools

Everything here runs on the same database as the rest of Hoops Nightly: box scores and play-by-play from every game, the injury report, contracts and cap sheets, the draft-pick ledger. Nothing is typed in by hand, so a widget on your blog, a graphic for your feed and a trade you build in the machine all show the same numbers, updated through the night. The first four tools work outside this site: widgets you paste into any page, overlays for your Twitch or YouTube stream, graphics you post on your socials, and Pro, which makes your team's graphics for you after every game. Below them are the tools you use here, from the season simulator to the lottery odds. On game nights the scoreboard refreshes every minute, box scores follow within minutes of the final and injury changes land within 20 minutes of the report, so a widget or a graphic made late at night already carries the result. The simulator reruns the whole season every morning with the latest form, and the trade machine checks every deal against the current cap sheets and aprons.

Two ways to use it

Live

Embed it: it keeps itself up to date

Pick a widget and copy the code.
Paste it once in your post, sidebar or page (WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Ghost, any HTML).
That's it. Every time a reader opens your page the widget is drawn fresh from our servers: scores every 20 seconds during games, injuries through the day, standings and stats after every game. You never touch it again.

Best for: your site, your blog, a team page that should always be right.

File

Download it: a picture of this moment

Pick a template, your team or player, the format for your platform.
Add your handle and logo, then download the PNG (Pro members also get the MP4 video).
Post it anywhere. It is a file: it shows the numbers of the moment you made it and never changes afterwards. Make a new one after the next game.

Best for: Instagram, X, TikTok, YouTube, newsletters, podcasts.

Open the graphics maker →

Both are free. Pro ($5.99/month) makes your team's graphics for you after every game, with your brand, and adds video, Pro templates, no marks and white-label widgets.
