Visualizing the future of the Boston Celtics’ cap usage just got a little easier for those of us who prefer graphic representations with our figures, care of Stephen Spiewak and Vivid Seats.
Spiewak assembled a visualization tool that lets you explore which players make up how much of each of the NBA’s 30 teams’ cap space by season, allowing for a quick and dirty tool to reference each franchise’s distribution of available cap space.
As one heads into future seasons, the space for teams with less financial commitments become clear as names disappear from each team’s circle, and the years and dollars for all players under contract are there at a glance when you mouse over the player’s individual circles.
While the visualizer is more of a cool way to explore the state of each team’s financial commitments than a serious diagnostic tool, it also provides a great means of displaying that data in ways at least some of us will find more amenable to making those synaptic connections stick.
