Canzhi Ye is a software engineer, data scientist, and basketball enthusiast. We sit down to discuss his work in applying modeling to basketball, talk about how many basketball positions actually exist, how we might want to re-define the assist, and what data is available to analyze now versus back then. Canzhi also previously worked as an intern for the Brooklyn Nets analytics department and we dive into that a bit.
