Just look at LeBron's @sports_ref page, the clues were there the whole time 👀

[Jim Miloch @podoffame]

Only six players have worn a 76ers jersey after turning 38.

The most games any of them played in a single season was 55.

The most points any of them scored in a single season was 294 (5.3 PPG)

Your move LeBron.

Who has the most boring @bball_ref page?

Pretty awesome new cross-site search tool on Sports Reference, where you are now able to look through all reference pages! Here’s what I found for my first and last name:

A star-studded day in NBA history today!

[Andy Bailey @AndrewDBailey]

I've seen box plus/minus nitpicked a lot over the last few years. It has, like any catch-all, its flaws.

But it's easily searchable all the way back to 1973 (good for NBA history nerds like me), and the career top three is the three best basketball players I've ever seen. So...

(first picture is the regular-season leaderboard, second picture is playoffs).

Top 10, per @Stathead

[Andy Bailey @AndrewDBailey]

Rudy Gobert has four Defensive Player of the Year wins.

During his career, his regular-season net rating swing is +6.7, and his playoff net rating swing is +4.7.

He's 87th in career regular and postseason wins over replacement player, ahead of Joel Embiid and Draymond Green.

Real ones know.

Cool addition to Basketball-Reference .com that I didn't notice till today. Scroll down on the homepage, and you'll get to the standings for various international leagues.

They have a majorly updated search!

1. You can search across all sports on one page
2. You can search by nicknames
3. Now has a more forgiving "fuzzy search" capability, meaning that spelling doesn't need to be perfect to get the right results

[Michael Martin @MichaelOnSports]

I see that the new @sports_ref search feature is working perfectly.

[Brandon Anderson @wheatonbrando]

Guessing many of y’all use @sports_ref for just about everything like me. 🏀 🏈⚽️⚾️

There’s now a brand new feature at https://t.co/0tUOwviMiX where you can now search every name in the database across every sport all in one place! 🔽

[Andy Bailey @AndrewDBailey]

Pardon?

[The Mavs Blog @TheMavsBlog]

What first or last name can produce the greatest resume in sports?

Check out the new @sports_ref search features and see if you can get better names than this. 👀

[Extra @extrastats]

Sports Reference released a new search feature, no longer do you have to go to a specific Reference page to find your player.

Super neat and makes researching players
a lot quicker.

Just use https://t.co/pfQEbsnjik!

Every sophomore here is participating in summer league besides two, and they play for the same team.
