Palettes

The package currently contains 129 palettes based on various NBA jerseys from every current NBA team and a few of former teams (Bobcats, Supersonics, New Orleans Hornets).

Denver Nuggets

The structure of the palette names is: teamname_jerseytype. For example to see the Utah Jazz city colors for this season:

nba_palette("nuggets_city2")

Utah Jazz

nba_palette("jazz_city")

Toronto Raptors

nba_palette("raptors_original")

nba_palette("raptors_military")

Miami Heat

The package comes with team results from the 2020 NBA season (obtained using nbastatR::game_logs() from the nbastatR package).

library("ggplot2")
library("dplyr")
data(nba_results2020)

nba_results2020 %>% 
   filter(nameTeam == 'Miami Heat') %>% 
   ggplot(aes(ptsTeam, fill = factor(isWin))) + 
   geom_density()+
   scale_fill_manual(values = nba_palette("heat"))

nba_palette() takes an argument type which can be either continuous or discrete.

pal <- nba_palette("heat_vice", 100, type = "continuous")

nba_results2020 %>% 
  ggplot(aes(pctFG2Team, pctFG3Team)) +
  geom_point(aes(colour = ptsTeam)) +
  scale_colour_gradientn(colours = pal) +
  theme_minimal()

More examples

nba_palette("bucks_earned")

nba_palette("bucks_city2")

nba_palette("bobcats")

nba_palette("grizzlies_retro")

nba_palette("grizzlies_retro", 'continuous', n = 100)

nba_palette("sixers_city")

nba_palette("warriors")

nba_palette("warriors_00s")

Combining Palettes

Palettes can be combined by passing a vector of palette names

nba_palette(c("warriors", "warriors_00s"))
