Possession Breakdown
Upload a game and BenchStats splits it into possessions, so you never scrub through a whole tape again.
- Jump straight to any possession
- Skip free throws and stoppages
Features
Basketball film analysis software, built for coaches.
BenchStats turns basketball game film into possessions, team stats and linked film for coaches. Upload a game and every possession is split out, tagged and counted, and every number opens the plays behind it.
