SQL Rolling Averages Over 10 Games

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

How would you use SQL window functions to compute rolling averages for player performance over the last 10 games?

Use the provided player and game-statistics tables. Calculate rolling averages for points, rebounds, and assists independently for each player, using the available games when fewer than 10 prior games exist. NULL points values should be ignored by the average.

Output

  1. One row per matched player game with the player name, game date, game number, points, and three rolling averages.
  2. Name the average columns rolling_10_game_avg_points, rolling_10_game_avg_rebounds, and rolling_10_game_avg_assists.
  3. Order by player name, game date, and game number ascending.
