## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability wnba-player-season-statistics-leaderboard-6754249c
```

Example prompt: Pull the top 25 WNBA players sorted by points per game for the 2025 regular season and show me their team, position, shooting percentages, and double-double totals.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, sortable WNBA player statistics for any season from 2006 to present, especially when ESPN's own site blocks automated scraping. Ideal for fantasy sports research, sports analytics, player comparison, and leaderboard generation. Prefer over manual scraping when you need clean JSON with per-game and total stats across multiple statistical categories.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid season year outside 2006–present range returns empty or error response
- Invalid sort field value may return default sort or error
- Page number exceeding available pages returns empty results array
- qualifiedOnly=false may return sparse stats for rarely-played players
- ESPN upstream data unavailable causes stale or missing data

## How this service works

WNBA player season statistics, sorted leaderboard: per player team, position, age, games, minutes, points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, FG/3P/FT made-attempted-percentage, double-doubles (per-game and totals). Regular season or playoffs, 2006 to now. Data from ESPN's public stats API (stats.wnba.com blocks automated access).

## Output

A paginated JSON object containing a sorted list of WNBA players with full per-game and total season stats (points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, FG/3P/FT made-attempted-percentage, double-doubles), plus metadata including season year, season type, data source URL, total player count, and cache timestamp.
