Alpha Metrics for a player (Pro Insights+)

Returns three proprietary ML-derived signals computed from the player's last 8 games:

  • Consistency Score (0–100) — how stable the player's usage/floor is. Higher = more reliable starter.
  • Momentum Delta — signed float. Positive = trending up vs. prior 3-game baseline; negative = cooling off.
  • Opportunity Ceiling — 90th-percentile fantasy output from the sample window. Represents the player's peak upside.

Results are pre-computed weekly (Tuesday 3 AM ET, post-MNF) and cached. Fresh players compute on-the-fly.
