📋 What the DraftKings Scraper does

Three data types with sport filters:

• 🎲 DFS data. Contest details, player salaries, and draftable rosters.
• 📊 Sportsbook odds. Money lines, spreads, totals, and prop bets across markets.
• 🏈 Sport filter. NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, soccer, tennis, golf, MMA, and more.
• 📝 Optional details. Fetch granular player stats and draftable breakdowns.

Each record includes event name, teams, odds (money line, spread, total), player salary, position, projections, contest entry fee, prize pool, and timestamps.

💡 Why it matters: tracking odds movements and DFS salaries manually means refreshing DraftKings pages and copying numbers by hand. This Actor exports structured betting and fantasy data at scale, ready for your models, dashboards, or comparison tools.

⚙️ Input

Input	Type	Default	Behavior
maxItems	integer	10	Max items. Free: limited. Paid: up to 1,000,000.
dataType	string	""	Data type: DFS contests/players, sportsbook odds, or both.
sport	string	"ALL"	Sport: ALL, NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, soccer, tennis, etc.
includeDetails	boolean	false	Fetch detailed player/draftable data (slower).

Example: NFL sportsbook odds.

{
    "dataType": "sportsbook",
    "sport": "NFL",
    "maxItems": 50
}

Example: all DFS contest data with player details.

{
    "dataType": "dfs",
    "sport": "ALL",
    "includeDetails": true,
    "maxItems": 100
}

⚠️ Good to Know: enabling includeDetails fetches player-level stats and draftable breakdowns for each event. This is slower but returns much richer data for model building.
