# Phase 1 Plan 02: NBA + NHL Modules Summary

**Extracted NBA and NHL scrapers from monolithic script into dedicated sport modules**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 10 min
- **Started:** 2026-01-10T06:03:30Z
- **Completed:** 2026-01-10T06:13:30Z
- **Tasks:** 2
- **Files created:** 2

## Accomplishments

- Created `Scripts/nba.py` with NBA_TEAMS (30 teams), 3 game scrapers, stadium data with coordinates
- Created `Scripts/nhl.py` with NHL_TEAMS (32 teams including Utah Hockey Club), 3 game scrapers, stadium data
- Both modules follow the mlb.py pattern exactly for consistency

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Create nba.py sport module** - `70acfb7` (feat)
2. **Task 2: Create nhl.py sport module** - `c229fa7` (feat)

## Files Created/Modified

- `Scripts/nba.py` - NBA team mappings, Basketball-Reference/ESPN/CBS scrapers, 30 arenas with coordinates
- `Scripts/nhl.py` - NHL team mappings, Hockey-Reference/NHL API/ESPN scrapers, 32 arenas with coordinates

## Decisions Made

- Used `get_nba_season_string()` and `get_nhl_season_string()` instead of a shared function to maintain module independence
- Included Utah Hockey Club (newest NHL team) in team mappings

## Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

## Issues Encountered

None

## Next Phase Readiness

- core.py, mlb.py, nba.py, nhl.py all complete
- Ready for 01-03-PLAN.md (nfl.py + orchestrator refactor)
