Implementation notes

The update operation is performed using Prisma’s update method as shown in /home/daytona/workspace/source/server/api/teams/update.ts:41-52: 
const updatedTeam = await db.teams.update({
    where: {
        teamId: oldTeamId,
    },
    data: {
        teamId: newTeamId,
        name: name,
        nationality: nationality,
        url: url,
        teamLogo: teamLogo,
    },
});
This allows updating the team ID itself, which is useful for correcting team identifiers while maintaining database relationships.
