Theme Features
Courtside is a broadcast-dark basketball news and stats theme. Teams, players and games are ordinary posts with stat fields, and twenty dynamic components render everything from the live ticker to sortable rosters — add a game and the whole board follows.

The board runs itself.Add a game in the admin and it appears in the ticker, the scores hub and its own matchup page automatically — standings, leaders and playoff cut lines all recompute from the result.
01 · Standings
A board that keeps itself
The full standings board draws its own playoff and play-in cut lines, with home, away and last-ten splits, streaks and team-colour glows — computed from results, and pinned in a sticky rail through the news pages.

02 · Players
A wall of stars, filterable
Five hundred and forty-eight players with faces, positions and numbers — search, filter by team or position and sort by any stat, with no page reloads. League leaders come with player faces and glowing bars.

03 · Game nights
Every night, on the board
Every game gets a designed page — matchup hero, head-to-head bars and players to watch — and the scores hub groups the nights into date-stamped cards with winner highlights, while the live ticker runs across every page.

04 · Franchises
Every franchise, fully built
Team pages carry sortable stat rosters, team leaders and schedules; player pages get stat tiles, league-rank bars and teammates. Nothing is hand-written — it all reads from the same records.

05 · The Site Editor
Click any board, restyle any pixel
Courtside’s front page opens as ordinary blocks. Select any card in List View and restyle colour, spacing and typography per breakpoint from the sidebar — Stepfox Looks turns every choice into a block attribute, so there is no stylesheet to maintain.

06 · The back office
One dashboard runs the whole season
One NBA Stats menu holds teams, players and games, plus an official NBA data console fed by ESPN — one-click updates, a daily schedule and data-health checks, refreshed on every Courtside site from one snapshot.
