NBA Rest Days Explained

For each team, we take team schedules and tag the “game-day”s and “off-day”s. This way, we can analyze the rest days patterns. Let’s code: X as the game-day, and O, as the off-day.

GAME DAYS WITH NO REST:

5IN7: 5th game in 7 days
Provided just for the record. 5-IN-7 might occur after the newly scheduled games come out after first round of NBA Cup!
4IN5-B2B: 4th game in 5 days w/ playing on last 2 consecutive nights. Pattern=…X+X+O+[X+X]
Side note: The NBA avoided scheduling “4IN5” games starting from 2017-18 season!
3IN4-B2B: 3rd game in 4 days w/ playing on last 2 consecutive days. Pattern=…X+O+[X+X]
Soft-B2B: 2nd game in 2 consecutive days. Pattern=…[X+X]

AT LEAST 1 DAY REST:

3IN4: 3rd game in 4 days and had 1 day rest yesterday. Pattern=…X+X+O+X
1: Had 1 day rest (yesterday) and a playing a game today. Pattern=…O+X
2: Had 2 days rest and a playing a game a game today. Pattern=…O+O+X
3+: 3 or more days rest and playing a game today. Pattern=…O+O+O+X

Rest Advantage: Team is rested but the opponent is on back-to-back
Rest Disadvantage: Team is on back-to-back but the opponent is not
No Advantage: Team and tjhe oppnent shares same rest days situation. Both rested or both with no-rest.
