- The page says player profiles use last-season statistics and tier labels rather than invented overall ratings.
Field notes
The page explains its game engine in terms of possession events: who shoots, what kind of attempt they take, how defenders respond, and who gets the rebound. It says player profiles draw on 2025-26 per-game statistics, while rookies use college production, and uses letter tiers instead of overall-rating numbers. The capture showed the roster area still loading, so the listed 2026-27 data was not verified as available.
