How to get value from ipywidget select widget?

I have been having a hard time finding a straightforward solution for this. If I have a select widget, how do I actually get the value that the user clicks? I have seen 'interact' and 'observe' come up in some answers but I'm still not really sure.

For example:

    import numpy as np
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    import pandas as pd
    from pandas import DataFrame
    import nba_api
    import ipywidgets as widgets
    from ipywidgets import Box
    from ipywidgets import interact

from nba_api.stats.static import teams
team_list = teams.get_teams()

team_list_df = DataFrame(team_list)
name_column = team_list_df.loc[:,'full_name']
id_column = team_list_df.loc[:,'id']
names = name_column.values
ids = id_column.values

name_id = zip(names, ids)
name_id = list(name_id)

Team1 = widgets.Select(
    options=name_id,
    value=1610612737,
    description='Team 1:',
    disabled=False
)

Team2 = widgets.Select(
    options=name_id,
    value=1610612738,
    description='Team 2:',
    disabled=False
)

box = Box(children=[Team1, Team2])

box #

I am looking to then get the values from the two widgets, to display the stats of the two teams that were selected.

Thanks in advance.

You should be able to get the values from the widgets' value properties.

print(Team1.value)
print(Team2.value)
