Internal helper – ESPN basketball calendar — .espn_basketball

Fetches the schedule calendar for an ESPN basketball league and returns a tidy tibble of calendar entries. This is the single implementation shared by espn_wbb_calendar() (league = "womens-college-basketball") and espn_wnba_calendar() (league = "wnba"). The scoreboard endpoint carries a leagues[[1]]$calendar block that describes the season types and their date-range entries (weeks / round labels).

.espn_basketball_calendar(league, season, ...)

Arguments

league: character. One of "wnba" or "womens-college-basketball".
season: integer or character. Four-digit season year (e.g. 2025).
...: Currently unused; reserved for future pass-through arguments.

Value

A wehoop_data tibble of calendar entries, or NULL on error.
