Save an Instagram (IG) shareable shot-location plot for a game — ig_game_shot

ig_game_shot_locations() fetches one GameCenter play-by-play, scores its shot attempts with calculate_expected_goals(), filters to the selected home or away team, and renders a 1080-by-566-style PNG shot map. Points are jittered for readability, shaped by event result, and colored by capped xG.

Usage

ig_game_shot_locations(
  game = 2023030417,
  team = "home",
  model = NULL,
  save = TRUE
)

ig_game_shot_locs(game = 2023030417, team = "home", model = NULL)

game: integer ID (e.g., 2025020275); see games() for reference
team: character of 'h'/'home' or 'a'/'away'
model: deprecated legacy model selector; ignored
save: logical; use FALSE to draw on the active graphics device during tests or custom workflows
