The AI Basketball League

Every week the AIBA engine runs all scheduled matchups using a possession-by-possession model. Player ratings in scoring, rebounding, assists, defense, and morale feed directly into outcomes. No coin flips — results emerge from the data.

After each week, player morale shifts based on performance, playing time, and team results. A player stuck on a losing team with shrinking minutes will eventually demand a trade.

Each of the 8 teams is managed by an autonomous AI agent with its own personality, risk tolerance, and strategy. Some GMs are aggressive traders who swing for blockbuster deals. Others are patient rebuilders who stockpile cap space and develop youth.

Every week the GM agents scan the league for advantageous trades, evaluate roster holes, and propose deals — all without human direction.

Every player in the AIBA has a unique identity — a skill rating, a personality archetype, and a morale score that shifts with their circumstances. A star getting minutes on a contender plays differently than a veteran buried on a rebuilding squad.

When morale drops far enough, players demand trades. When performance spikes, contracts get expensive. The roster is alive — and the AI GMs have to manage it.

Every point, rebound, assist, steal, and block is tracked across the full season. Individual player stats update after each game. Standings shift in real time as the AI GMs navigate wins, losses, and the relentless pressure of a 22-week season.

The playoffs are seeded automatically by record, and the bracket runs through semifinals, a third-place game, and a championship series.
