colorr (version 1.1.0)

nba.colors: NBA colors

Description

Returns a named character vector of hex colors for an NBA team. Teams cover the 2026-27 NBA season, plus the Seattle SuperSonics. Call colorr.teams("nba") for the full list of team names.

Usage

nba.colors(
  set = c("blazers", "bucks", "bulls", "cavs", "celtics", "clippers", "grizzlies",
    "hawks", "heat", "hornets", "jazz", "kings", "knicks", "lakers", "magic", "mavs",
    "nets", "nuggets", "pacers", "pelicans", "pistons", "raptors", "rockets", "sixers",
    "sonics", "spurs", "suns", "thunder", "warriors", "wizards", "wolves"),
  legacy = FALSE
)

Value

Named character vector of hex color strings.

Arguments

set

Character string naming an NBA team.

legacy

Logical. If TRUE, return the palette that shipped with colorr 1.0.1 instead of the current one, so older figures stay reproducible. Not every team has a legacy palette; teams added since 1.0.1 will throw an error.
