Hoops Simulator simulates seasons of fantasy basketball. The league, conferences, divisions, format, teams, players, and stats are all customisable. HS includes the possibility to play with current NBA teams and players, assigning player attribute stats by pulling data directly from Basketball-Reference.com.

• NBA player data is pulled from Basketball-Reference and stores locally
• Regular and post-season simulation structure with seeding and bracketing
• Position has impact on rating (eg. PG assessed more heavily on shooting and assists than C)

• Comprehensive command line control
• Save/Load state
• Modes
  • NBA season mode
  • Custom league
  • Exhibition game
• Passage of Time:
  • Have players age and performance peak or dip as they approach and pass their prime, respectively
  • Have players retire based on age & athleticism
  • Steady influx of new fictional generated players from college that get drafted into league every season
• Circumstances:
  • Have player performance saved as stats and use generated game stats to calculate player ability

• Add interface and make season playable as a certain team. Make games with team playable and simulate all others.
