404 on PlayerShotLog
It seems that most of the player.py endpoints are functioning however I am getting a 404 on the PlayerShotLogTracking. This same input works for PlayeerShootingSplits.
from nba_py import player
Aaron_brooks = player.get_player(first_name="Aaron",last_name="Brooks")
shot_log = player.PlayerShotLogTracking(player_id=Aaron_brooks)

It looked as though the only required argument to pass to PlayerShotLogTracking was the player_id. So perhaps they have changed the endpoint?
Seems like the referrer is the one to blame here, will test and have something up shortly
My guess is that this endpoint has been removed because I can't find any pages on stats.nba.com that lead to it. Maybe it was replaced with ShotChart ?
@mcdallas I still see it being used when you go to places like http://stats.nba.com/player/#!/201935/tracking/shots/
And it still shows up in the custom.min.js
leading me to believe it has something to do with the headers we are sending.
edit: nevermind I'm a dummy didn't realize you were looking for playerdashptshotlog
and not just playerdashptshot
