My name is Quinten Adabie, and I am currently finishing a master's degree in Applied Data Science from the University of Michigan's online program! Avid fan of the NFL, NCAAB, and NBA. My full-time job currently is a regional safety manager, and my undergraduate degree is in Chemical Engineering from Purdue. Looking to align my future career with my passion for sports Data Science.

Currently, I am working on a study looking at how the transfer portal rule changes are shifting the NCAAB landscape from a player development and team scheme perspective. Follow the project at the Github here (results will be updated mid-August) - https://github.com/qadabie18/NCAAB_TransferPortal/tree/main
I also co-host a fantasy football podcast, Fantasy Football Gameplan, which aims to make fantasy football feel less like a job by giving actionable, analytics-based advice.

ESPN provides play-by-play text descriptions for the plays we see pictured above. These descriptions contain many distinct actions such as shooting, rebounds, steals, and substitutions. These text descriptions were then cleaned into possession summaries that follow the path of the ball, which were then subsequently turned into network nodes. Finally, for each team, all of these nodes are combined to generate an individual team's network specific to a certain game. This network analysis has been performed for basketball offenses (Fewell 2012), but the further similarity measurements have not been studied. These networks give player-specific measurements, such as in- and out-degree centrality, and allow for team analysis of how consistent and effective a network is.
