2024 WNBA Standings

Rank	Team	W	L	PCT	GB	CONF	HOME	ROAD	STREAK	L-10	PLAYOFFS

Playoffs: If True then that team has a spot in the playoffs no matter what

This was a fun project. I wanted a quick and simple way to look at the current standings. There was no API I could use to fetch the data on the fly so I created a web scraper, scheduled the scraping using github actions for 5:30 UTC daily, and made the resulting data available from github pages so that it could be pulled by this page. The above data is what was fetched on September 18th 2024.

See the last created csv from September 18th: download or open https://jebbss.github.io/wnba-standings-csv/18-09-2024-wnba.csv Whether this is a download or a link seems to be inconsistent across browsers.
