Server Details

NBA MCP — player, team, and game data via the BallDontLie API

The last two health checks of this connector failed. If this server requires authentication, missing or expired test credentials may be the cause. A test profile lets Glama authenticate for health checks and discover tools; it is separate from your personal connections.

If you are the author, claim ownership, then add or update a test profile under Admin → Test Profile.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Scored across 40 tools

Disambiguation3/5

The descriptions are unusually explicit about when to prefer each tool (ask_pipeworx vs _grounded vs _beta vs deep_research all carry routing guidance), which mitigates a lot. But the overlap is genuinely large: three near-identical universal routers, six prediction-market tools (polymarket_edges/arbitrage/edge_tracker/fill_risk/kalshi_spread/bet_research), and four entity-lookup tools (entity_profile/company_facts/compare_entities/recent_changes) that must be distinguished by prose alone.

Naming Consistency4/5

Overwhelmingly snake_case with a verb_noun or noun_noun pattern (get_games, search_players, entity_profile, polymarket_edges, resolution_audit). Minor deviations: bare verbs remember/recall/forget/subscribe/unsubscribe, and the ask_pipeworx/_beta/_grounded suffix family breaks the verb_noun convention, but the scheme is readable and predictable overall.

Tool Count2/5

40 tools is well past the point of being scannable, and several are redundant rather than additive (ask_pipeworx_beta is explicitly a duplicate of ask_pipeworx; edge_tracker and fill_risk are sub-modes of polymarket_edges). The breadth is a general data gateway rather than a coherent single-purpose server, so many tools do not earn a distinct slot.

Completeness2/5

The server is named 'Nba' yet only 4 of 40 tools are NBA-related, and those are thin: no standings, no box scores, no season averages (explicitly unavailable), and get_player is paywalled. The vast Pipeworx meta-tool surface is broad but does not close the NBA gap the name implies.
