# Glossary

Here you will find formulas or terms that might be confusing. I will do my best to define things that aren’t common sense here. I will try to keep an updated list of terms that need more clarification.

### Rest categories used in the NBA schedule work

**B2B**: Back to back games.

**3 in 4, B2B**: 3 games in the last 4 days, including back to back.

**3 in 4**: 3 games in the last 4 days.

**4 in 5**: 4 games in the last 5 days.

**1 Day Rest**: 1 day rest.

**2 Days Rest**: 2 days rest.

**3-4 Days Rest**: 3-4 days rest.

**5 Days Rest**: 5 days rest.

These are the categories defined in [2012-13 NBA Schedule with Days of Rest](https://sportsnstats.com/nba-schedule-days-rest/).
