About Sports Reference (Baseball/Basketball/Pro Football/Hockey/College Reference)

Sports Reference is the umbrella for Baseball-Reference, Basketball-Reference, Pro-Football-Reference, Hockey-Reference, the college football and basketball sites, and FBref. DFS and pick'em players use it to look up game logs, splits and career histories when checking a player's recent form or a prop line. In July 2026 it added one search box that covers every player and team across all its sites.

  • Unified cross-site search (added July 2026)
