How these cheat sheets work
- Every figure is from stored games: statistics, never sportsbook lines, odds or prices. Player thresholds are statistical: each player’s featured threshold, the one nearest the player’s usual output, as on the player’s prop research page.
- Player rows are ordered by the lower bound of a 95% confidence interval on the hit rate, so a long record ranks above a short one at the same percentage; a small sample is marked.
- The sheets describe what already happened. They are not predictions, picks or value estimates, and a high past rate does not make a bet likely to win.
- The page is rebuilt with each daily research refresh; rows for games that have started drop off at the next refresh.
This page shows statistics and results only. It contains no sportsbook prices or betting lines. Current markets, hit rates against the line and StatsNext research are in the app.
