import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

#create data
df = pd.DataFrame({'points': [11, 17, 16, 18, 22, 25, 26, 24, 29],
                   'assists': [5, 7, 7, 9, 12, 9, 9, 4, 8],
                   'rebounds': [6, 8, 8, 10, 14, 12, 12, 10, 11]})

#add lines to plot
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1,1,constrained_layout=True)
ax.plot(df['points'], label='Points', color='green')
ax.plot(df['assists'], label='Assists', color='steelblue')
ax.plot(df['rebounds'], label='Rebounds', color='purple')

#get handles and labels
handles, labels = ax.get_legend_handles_labels()

#specify order of items in legend
order = [1,2,0]

#add legend to plot
fig.legend([handles[idx] for idx in order],[labels[idx] for idx in order])
