Hi Guys, When i tried to run this simple script: from nba_py.player import PlayerList, PlayerGameLogs players = PlayerList() it came back to me with this message:

Error Message

Any suggestions of what could be the problems? and what should i do? Thank you, Justin The

On my phone so I'm just guessing here but if you paste that url directly into your browser does it return anything? I see the season is set to 2016-17 and IsOnlyCurrentSeason is set to 1 which probably doesn't make sense since the current season isn't 2016-17.

Passing season='2017-18' into your PlayerList call might be enough!

Hi rneu31, thanks for your reply. I paste the url to my browser and it came back with a result, a long list of json text. that was what confused me. i could access it through my browser, but couldn't through my code.
