I also tried to make a similar code like yours except for the NBA, but unfortunately I couldn't find an Ultimate Basketball website. I still really love your code!

Thank you! Yea I got lucky finding that site, so much good information there. Were you able to find some other way to make NBA predictions?

Glad you liked it! It was a lot of fun to build and write up.
