Player Id's are based on www.stats.nba.com player ids. nba_api is an easy way to get a list of these player ids and its also useful for getting nab statistics. There is a json file of basic player information loacted at src/playerInfo.json. Image files are saved in .png format. Different formats can be used by specifying fileName.

from nbaHeadshots import getHeadshotById, getAllHeadshots

# Lebron James headshot will be saved as lebron.jpg in saveHere folder
getHeadshotById(2544, folder="saveHere/", fileName="lebron.jpg")

# Lebron James headshot will be saved as 2544.png in current directory
getHeadshotById(2544)

# All headshots will be saved as "id".png in saveHere folder
getAllHeadshots("saveHere/")
