Season track record

How it works. The win chance comes from the XGBoost model in the predictor, the projected margin from the separate margin model (half of games finish within about 10 points of it). Both use only games played before that day; early in the season each team’s form is topped up with its last games of the previous season. Upcoming predictions refresh every 30 minutes until tip-off, then lock. Injury report from ESPN.
