Introduction

As part of the "Domains of Application of Statistics" module, we are offered the opportunity to explore how statistics can improve team preparation in sports, specifically in women's basketball. Based on a dataset containing performance data of basketball teams, we sought to demonstrate the usefulness of statistics in optimizing the work of coaches. Our main objective is to provide a statistical tool that allows us to prepare our team optimally for future matches. Here, we will play the role (fictitiously) of the Statistics Team in support of the coaches of the ASVEL team. Our goal is to provide the necessary statistical tools to answer: "How to prepare efficiently for a match depending on the opponent?"
