The games for today now show up, however if you do load_mbb_team_box(seasons = most_recent_mbb_season()) , then the games from December 2, 2024 are not showing there. I think this was an issue with the ESPN website as I saw the games were not showing up properly on their site until later in the day.

Edit: I did some digging and founded that there also is not data for November 5 and November 14. I suspect now that it may be more of an issue on ESPN.

If you go here: https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/
Click on Scores
Change the dropdown to "Division I"
Then you cannot click on games from these dates. However if you click on the games from today for example, then you are able to navigate to those days

Appreciate the update. It looks like the same sort of problem is happening for the games on December 9. Seems like it's just an ESPN problem. I know they've taken off shot location on PBP so I assume they are just limiting certain things now. It's a nuisance.
