I've built a similar model for NCAA basketball, and it looks like professional basketball data is available:

The basic data can be scraped from the tables for free. Deeper information might be behind a paywall, but I think you could create a basic model from the data that is freely available.

Thanks. I only actually need the game logs and I'll eventually want to integrate college and international into the model.

Neat. I've been wanting to do something similar to this for basketball (and eventually baseball, hockey, soccer, etc.).
Was the data fairly accessible?
I didn't get very far in looking into it, but it seemed like the gamelogs were behind a paywall.
