Does BallerCam keep stats for basketball?

Yes. BallerCam can track basketball scores, player statistics, advanced game stats, season performance, and video clips connected to scored plays.

You can choose how much detail you want to track—from basic scoring to a more complete set of basketball statistics. BallerCam also offers AI Plays to help identify certain shot events from recorded games.

🏀 What Basketball Stats Can BallerCam Track?

The statistics available depend on the scoring mode you choose.

BallerCam offers three main basketball scoring options:

• Basic Scoring
• Player Stats
• Advanced Scoring

This allows you to keep scoring simple or collect more detailed statistics for your team.

🔢 Basic Scoring

Basic Scoring is the simplest option and focuses on keeping the game score accurate.

You can record:

• 2-point field goals
• 3-point field goals
• Free throws

This is useful when your main goal is to maintain the live score without tracking detailed individual statistics.

👤 Player Stats

Player Stats adds player attribution to basic scoring.

When a basket is recorded, you can assign the points to the player who scored.

For example:

1. Record the basket.
2. Select the player's jersey number.
3. BallerCam associates the scoring play with that player.

If the player isn't already listed, you can add the player while keeping score.

If you aren't sure who scored, you can skip player attribution and continue scoring the game.

📊 Advanced Basketball Stats

For more detailed stat keeping, enable Advanced Scoring.

Advanced Scoring can track:

• Assists
• Offensive rebounds
• Defensive rebounds
• Turnovers
• Steals
• Blocks
• Fouls
• Timeouts

You can also track missed shots when you want shooting percentages and other shooting-related information.

⚙️ Customize the Stats You Track

You don't have to track every available advanced statistic.

Before the game, you can choose which Advanced Stats you want to use.

For example, for a youth game you might only track:

• Points
• Assists
• Rebounds

For a more competitive game, you might track:

• Points
• Assists
• Offensive rebounds
• Defensive rebounds
• Turnovers
• Steals
• Blocks
• Fouls
• Missed shots

The scoring screen adjusts based on the statistics you've selected, making it easier to focus on only the information you want to record.

Your selections apply to that specific game.

🏷️ Basketball Tag Stats in the App

After uploading your game’s HD recording, you can use Basketball Tag Stats inside the BallerCam app to tag and edit replay events.

Tag Stats works in portrait or landscape, including games with imported Smart Plays. Use it to add missed events, correct player attribution, and review your recorded statistics.

📥 Download Basketball Box Scores

You can download detailed Basketball Box Scores with player statistics and team totals in PNG, PDF, or CSV format.

Before exporting, select your teams, statistics, filters, and preferred sorting. The exported Box Score matches those selections.

If recent scoring changes have not appeared, check your connection and refresh the Box Score before exporting. Use the retry option if loading fails.

📲 Using a Second Device for Stats

For detailed basketball scoring, using a second iOS device is recommended.

The filming iPhone can remain focused on recording while another device handles:

• Scoring
• Player attribution
• Advanced statistics
• Game Log
• Roster information

To begin:

1. Open BallerCam on the second device.
2. Find the game currently in progress on Global Home.
3. Tap Keep Score.
4. Configure your Game Settings.
5. Select your scoring mode.
6. Start keeping score and tracking stats.

Make sure the account on the secondary iOS device has Keep Score permission for the team. 

The secondary scoring device can be an older supported iPhone or iPad running the BallerCam app. The iPhone 13 Pro or newer requirement applies to filming, not secondary-device scoring.

📋 Game Log

The Game Log lets you review the plays you've entered during the game.

Use the Game Log to:

• Review scoring events
• See which player was credited
• Correct an incorrect play
• Change the player associated with an event
• Change the scoring team
• Delete an incorrect entry

If you notice a mistake, correcting it as soon as possible helps keep your game statistics accurate.

When you correct or remove an assist, the displayed assist totals update accordingly. Editing a scoring play preserves its replay timing unless you change the timestamp.

👥 Player Stats During the Game

Player statistics can also be reviewed from the game's player list.

Select a player to see available statistics associated with that athlete.

This makes it easier to monitor individual performances while the game is still happening.

The available information depends on which statistics you've chosen to track.

🎬 Automatic Clips From Scoring

When you score a basketball game in real time from a second device, BallerCam can automatically create video clips for recorded plays.

You can open a play from Play-by-Play to watch the corresponding clip.

From there, you can:

• Watch the play
• Save the clip
• Create a clip
• Share the play

Player-attributed clips can also make it easier to review an individual athlete's plays.

This connects basketball statistics directly with the game video instead of leaving the stats and footage completely separate.

🤖 What Is AI Plays?

BallerCam also includes AI Plays for Basketball.

AI Plays analyzes a recorded basketball game and attempts to identify important shot events automatically.

Supported detections include:

• Made shots
• Missed shots
• Layups
• Dunks

Detected events are connected to video clips so you can quickly jump to the corresponding play.

Completed AI Plays remain available while the HD recording is processing. Player and jersey attribution appears when ready, and you can review and manually assign players and assists.

Use AI Plays settings to manage team colors and processing preferences for future games. Completed Smart Plays also remain available after imports or clip generation finishes.

Review detected plays for accuracy before relying on them for statistics.

🗺️ AI Plays Shot Chart

AI Plays also includes an interactive Shot Chart.

The Shot Chart displays detected made and missed shots on a basketball court.

You can use available filters and select a shot to watch its corresponding video clip.

AI Plays can also help you browse detected plays by information such as:

• Player
• Play type
• Half

This makes it easier to review shooting activity without manually searching through the entire replay.

⚠️ Are AI Plays an Official Box Score?

No.

AI Plays is designed as a video-analysis and discovery tool and should not be treated as an official or complete basketball box score.

AI may occasionally:

• Miss a shot
• Misclassify an event
• Assign a play incorrectly
• Detect a play before processing is fully complete

For games where accurate statistics are important, use manual scoring and stat tracking from a second device.

You can then use AI Plays as an additional tool for reviewing the video.

📈 Basketball Team Stats

Basketball also supports Team Stats, which brings season-level information together on your team profile.

Team Stats can include:

• Overall team record
• Match performance
• Player statistics
• Team Leaders
• Top Plays

This allows you to look beyond a single game and review how the team and individual players are performing throughout the season.

🗓️ Choose Which Games Count Toward Your Season

You can control which basketball games are included in your Team Stats.

Use Manage Matches to select the games that should count toward your season performance.

After selecting your games, save your season matches.

This is helpful if you want to exclude:

• Scrimmages
• Practice games
• Duplicate games
• Games you don't want included in your season totals

⭐ Team Leaders

The Team Leaders section highlights individual player statistics across your selected season games.

This provides a quick way to review player performance without opening every game individually.

The information displayed depends on the statistics recorded for those games.

🎥 Top Plays

Team Stats also includes Top Plays, allowing you to showcase selected basketball highlights on your team profile.

You can:

1. Open Top Plays.
2. Tap Curate.
3. Pin plays you want to feature.
4. Hide plays you don't want displayed.
5. Reorder your pinned plays.
6. Tap Save Top Plays.

This lets you control which moments represent your team's season.
