Abstract: We would like to help the UVA basketball team improve by investigating the position of each player on the team. Through machine learning techniques, we analyzed the performance of players, and whether their contribution on the court was better suited for a position different from their current position. From here, we want to make sure Coach Tony Bennett sets his lineups to maximize the effectiveness of players at their position.
