'''NBA data reciever
This python script fetches NBA teams and its players (including retired)
with some additional information about them.
The data is stored in the current working directory and thus,
any existing "Data" file is overwritten. Data will be in csv format.
To use this script, "pandas" and "python-dotenv" must be installed
You also have to make .env file in current dir and add there: API_KEY = your API_key
You can get the API key from url below.
Used API: https://rapidapi.com/theapiguy/api/free-nba/
