Teams

GET https://basketball.highlightly.net/teams Basketball API
GET https://sports.highlightly.net/basketball/teams All Sports API

Retrieve the teams supported by the API.

Pagination
limit and offset, 500 per page

Use the name query parameter to check whether a specific team is supported, or to fetch just its record rather than the whole list.

Each team carries an id and a name, plus a logo when present.

The id is the value other endpoints expect. It filters matches as homeTeamId or awayTeamId, and is the required parameter on team statistics, last five games and head to head.
