How often does an NBA big man go over his blocks line?

One row per game with a player's blocks line, the price, how many he blocked and whether he went over. Victor Wembanyama went over in 30 of 65.

Code verified October 21, 2026. One call to get_prop_history, 10 credits.

The call

player_id comes from search_players. Other markets: points, rebounds, assists, threes, points + rebounds + assists and steals. Blocks lines are low and move in half-block steps, so a one-block move in the line is a big change.

import pandas as pd

API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"

print(games[["game_date", "open_line", "line", "actual", "result"]].tail(6).to_string(index=False))
# Games, overs and average blocks at each line the books set.
games["over"] = (games["result"] == "over").astype(int)
print(games.groupby("line").agg(games=("over", "size"), overs=("over", "sum"), avg_blocks=("actual", "mean")).round(2))
# Quiet nights: the share of games with one block or none.
print("one block or fewer in", round((games["actual"] <= 1).mean(), 3), "of games")

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with a key from your dashboard. Python needs requests and pandas (pip install requests pandas). JavaScript runs on Node 18 or newer, or in the browser.

Or use the official client: pip install dunkapi
