players
Query each player in the list and append the stats from each player into a df.
for(i in 1:dim(players)[1]){ print(i)# i <- 7 try({ tmp <- NBAPlayerPerGameStats(players[i, 2]) %>% dplyr::filter(!is.na(age)) %>% dplyr::mutate(player = as.character(players[i, 1])) if(is.numeric(tmp$g)){ if(exists("player_stats")){ player_stats <- rbind(player_stats, tmp) } else{ player_stats <- tmp } } }, silent = T) }
Plot everything
p <- ggplot2::ggplot(data = player_stats, aes(x = age, y = efgpercent, group = player, col = player)) p + ggplot2::geom_line(alpha = .25) + ggplot2::geom_point(alpha = .25) + ggplot2::scale_y_continuous("effective field goal %age", limit = c(0, 1), labels = percent) + ggplot2::theme_bw()

Look at selector gadget for a team's website, e.g. Denver Nuggets. Suppose you want to find everybody who played for the Nuggets last year, and then their stats. Remember to use Chrome (ugh).
