Pandas. After separating rows into groups, how to return the result of only one specific group?

Question

The code is:
nba[["Team", "Salary"]].groupby("Team").max()

What if I need the max() of one specific team from nba.csv? How to indicate it?
I've tried to use:

nba.get_group("TeamName")

but it doesn't work after max().

Answer 1

I have done some research about this.
groupby() actually returns a GroupBy object, but the aggregation functions (like sum()) return a DataFrame that has labelled indices by default.
So you have two choices:

groups = nba[["Team", "Salary"]].groupby("Team")

print(groups.get_group("TeamName").max())
# or
print(groups.max().loc["TeamName"])

Thank you so much, that worked perfectly!
