Summary

The relevant changes to the API are around

  1. Fixing player names in season total tables
  • Basketball Reference started adding * to the end of player names. The related changes (#176) strip out these * values
  1. Fixing a utf-8 encoding issue for Windows machines (#173) where CSV and JSON files need to have their encoding argument specified as utf8 (#180)

There are also changes related to creating an HTTPService and ParserService but these should not have any implications on the behavior of the external API.
