Troubleshooting
If one or more teams don't have box scores imported into Exposure then the team names in HoopStats don't match what is in Exposure. This most likely happened because the scorekeeper typed the team name in manually or it was changed in Exposure later on.
If the Exposure schedule was modified after one or more games were imported into HoopStats, the Game ID might of changed. If a game isn't processing or viewing correctly from a public view, this could be the case. Remember there is a small delay once games appear also.
Verify the Game ID in HoopStats from the Game Details page by clicking on the Right Arrow on the Games under Seasons like below. You can find the Game ID in Exposure under the Scores section. If they don't match, you can update the Game ID in HoopStats. Once its changed follow steps #6 and #8 above to repush the stats to Exposure.
