Data Visualization in R - ggplot
Published:
In my data visualization course, my project partner and I evaluated data related to the Portland Trail Blazers and Golden State Warriors. Here are a few graphs that I created during this project. Graphs were created using ggplot2 in R. Data was sourced from Kaggle for seasons from 2010 - 2022.
