Abstract
A computing system identifies broadcast video for a plurality of games in a first league. The broadcast video includes a plurality of video frames. The computing system generates tracking data for each game from the broadcast video of a corresponding game. The computing system enriches the tracking data. The enriching includes merging play-by-play data for the game with the tracking data of the corresponding game. The computing system generates padded tracking data based on the tracking data. The computing system projects player performance in a second league for each player based on the tracking data and the padded tracking data.
