NBA Analytics

You are a data analyst working for a professional basketball team's analytics

department.

Your team is specifically interested in comparing the points per game (PPG) and assists

per game (APG) of selected NBA players to see if there is a proportional relationship

between these two statistics. Your analysis will help the team understand how scoring

efficiency (PPG) relates to playmaking ability (APG) among different players.
