HoopsIQ

Hoops IQ is an innovative WNBA analytics tool designed to revolutionize how fantasy basketball users access data from the WNBA. Leveraging a LangChain framework, Hoops IQ utilizes a sophisticated text-to-SQL engine to seamlessly translate natural language questions into SQL queries. This powerful capability allows users to access and analyze a wealth of WNBA data spanning from the 2018 season to the 2024 season. The tool queries multiple comprehensive databases, including play-by-play data, box scores, schedules, and player information. This ensures that users receive precise and relevant insights with ease, and reduces the probability of hallucinations that is prevalent with other LLM's like ChatGPT.

The user experience is enhanced through a sleek and intuitive Streamlit UI, which streamlines the process of data retrieval and visualization. Users can simply type their questions in natural language, and Hoops IQ will deliver accurate and actionable answers in real-time. Whether it’s analyzing player performance, understanding game dynamics, or exploring attendance trends, Hoops IQ provides a powerful and user-friendly platform for making data-driven decisions. This tool is set to become an indispensable resource for anyone interested in the WNBA, offering unprecedented access to detailed and structured basketball data.
