I was learning some sports data viz, and then I quickly adapted the following image of basketball shot data for my first foray into #MapPromptMonday (theme: "regions")

image alt text: ggplot of a half of a basketball court. The data is about player Kevin Durant, from the 2016 to 2017 season, and is grouped by "shot type": dunk, lay up, or shot.

The dunks took place very close to the basket, while lay ups happened in a range that was still close to the basket, but not necessarily as close as dunks.

For the rest of the shots, they are spread out, but with an obvious arc where the three-point shot opportunities are.

Surprisingly, some of the shots are credited to locations slightly out-of-bounds.
