the file does not contain new players of this season

I see the issue as well. Seems to be rookies eg Obi Toppin

i see in the slack channel to use CommonAllPlayers so i will try that

As mentioned by @chriscampana, one can get rookies from CommonAllPlayers. The player id is given by PERSON_ID, only need to convert it to string. I can find stats and gamelog for players like Lamelo.

TO_YEAR could possibly be used to keep only active players.
