Okay, so I’ve been wanting to keep better track of LeBron’s performance during the 2024 USA Basketball games. I’m a huge fan, and I figured building a simple tracker would be a fun little project. So, here’s how I did it.
First, I brainstormed what stats I really wanted to focus on. I decided on points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks – the basics, really. I also thought about tracking his field goal percentage and three-point percentage to get a better sense of his efficiency.
Gathering the Data
- I started by finding a reliable source for the game stats.
- Then after each game I Manually input the data into my spreadsheet, game by game. Yeah, it’s a bit tedious, but I like having control over it.
After collecting the data, I could put them into different dataset.
visualizing the Data
I am still thinking about using Python and some libraries like matplotlib or seaborn to create some nice charts and graphs. But So far, I made a simple table to show his stats progression through every game.
This whole thing is still a work in progress, But I am keeping updating and it is helping me to track lebron’s performance and to know him better.
