Data is only useful if you can understand it. Visualization makes it visible. Shot charts show where players shoot and how well they convert. One image replaces a page of numbers.

Shot charts show where players shoot and how well they convert. One image replaces a page of numbers.
Heat maps show where the action happens. They reveal tendencies at a glance.
Spray charts show where balls land. In baseball, they tell you a hitter's tendencies.
The best visualizations tell a story without words. The trend, the outlier, the pattern.
Color and size encode value. A good chart guides the eye to what matters.
Bad charts mislead. Misleading axes and distorted scales deceive.
Good data viz makes sports analysis accessible to everyone.
