bref_injuries: Basketball-Reference NBA Injury Report

Description

Get the current NBA injury report from Basketball-Reference.

One row per injured player with team, the date the status was last updated and the injury note (status + description). No API key is required.

Note on RotoWorld: RotoWorld was a long-standing NBA injuries source, but NBC shut it down (it now redirects to nbcsports.com/fantasy and the injuries tool is gone). This function uses Basketball-Reference's live injury report instead, which is maintained and carries the same player / team / status / note fields.
