Python request timing out

I've been trying to scrape the tables from this link here: https://www.nba.com/stats/player/203999/passes-dash/, however the endpoint that I found under the XHR tab which has the tables I need is completely timing out/not returning my request. I haven't sent the request an obnoxious amount of times so I'm not sure it's that, and I've tried with a varying amount of Request headers, params, etc. Is the website simply refusing to let me scrape?

import requests

url = 'https://stats.nba.com/stats/playerdashptpass?DateFrom=&DateTo=&GameSegment=&LastNGames=0&LeagueID=00&Location=&Month=0&OpponentTeamID=0&Outcome=&PORound=0&PerMode=PerGame&Period=0&PlayerID=203999&Season=2020-21&SeasonSegment=&SeasonType=Regular+Season&TeamID=0&VsConference=&VsDivision='
header = {
    'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate, br',
    'Accept-Language': 'en-US,en;q=0.9'
    'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:72.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/72.0',
    'Origin': 'https://www.nba.com'
    'Referer': 'https://www.nba.com/',
    'Accept': 'application/json, text/plain, */*',
    'Sec-Fetch-Site': 'same-site',
    'x-nba-stats-origin': 'stats',
    'x-nba-stats-token': 'true',
    'Host':'stats.nba.com'     
}

response = requests.get(url, headers=header)

You forgot a few commas...

import requests

url = 'https://stats.nba.com/stats/playerdashptpass?DateFrom=&DateTo=&GameSegment=&LastNGames=0&LeagueID=00&Location=&Month=0&OpponentTeamID=0&Outcome=&PORound=0&PerMode=PerGame&Period=0&PlayerID=203999&Season=2020-21&SeasonSegment=&SeasonType=Regular+Season&TeamID=0&VsConference=&VsDivision='
header = {
    'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate, br',
    'Accept-Language': 'en-US,en;q=0.9',
    'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:72.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/72.0',
    'Origin': 'https://www.nba.com',
    'Referer': 'https://www.nba.com/',
    'Accept': 'application/json, text/plain, */*',
    'Sec-Fetch-Site': 'same-site',
    'x-nba-stats-origin': 'stats',
    'x-nba-stats-token': 'true',
    'Host':'stats.nba.com',     
}

response = requests.get(url, headers=header)
print(response.text)

This should work...

The website is down and is timing out in my web browser. You did it right, their website is down.
