The NBA Data Scientist

Video Overview & Insights

With her PhD in math, Ivana Seric had expected to wind up with a career in academia—but thanks to the growing use of statistical analysis in the NBA, she took a job with the Philadelphia 76ers instead. As a data scientist, she helps the team's coaches devise smarter strategies to win. Next Jobs is a mini-documentary series about careers of the future hosted by Bloomberg Technology's Aki Ito.

Given these Pick n' Roll analyses and inferences, they don't factor that players like Nikola Jokic are adaptive and aren't necessarily tied to any 1 tactical tendency and dominate their opponent regardless of adjustments made by the other team

The Sixers were less talented in the early 00s and their tactic was simply, give the ball to Iverson and the made the NBA finals. Now they're focused on too many things and not all of them helpful lol

I think it's a male dominated field because, generally speaking, men are more interested in math and data science than women are and not because there's a gate keeper keeping women out of the profession.

2 minute time: Team A takes 12 three pointers only and makes 3 shots for 9 points 25%. Team B takes 12 two points and makes 6 plus 2 fouls and they make 3 out of 4 foul shots. Team B has 15 points. Even if you give Team A another three they have 12 points. Team B still wins and Team A shot 33% from three which is close to avg. The point is it matters who is tanking the threes and who is taking the FGs, not just a matter of stats, it’s both
