get_player
ActiveTool of Nba
Direct lookup of a single NBA player by BallDontLie ID. ⚠️ TIER-GATED: the /players/{id} endpoint requires the ALL-STAR tier ($9.99/mo) or higher; free-tier _apiKey gets a 403 with "No approval received". search_players covers the same player metadata (name/position/height/weight/team) on the free tier, so prefer that unless you already have a paid BallDontLie key.
