Changing the shape of my table to use it in Radar visualization

  In order to create a radar visualization, I need to do some pivoting and unpivoting of my data.  

 

My data looks like below:

 

Name       stats1       stats2   stats3  stats4  
Jack526.4578.4547857451
Henry125494652.721542047
Smith1487.2452414783087
Daniel4152.7147936411480
Olivia7884.94896520544308

 

I want to make it into the following shape:

 

 

Metrics   Jack     Henry     Smith     Daniel    Olivia       
stats1526.412541487.24152.77884.9
stats2578.494652.74524147948965
stats3547852154147836412054
stats474512047308714804308

 

  Is there anyone who can help me with this?

Paste the below into the advanced editor of a blank query.

let
  Source = Table.FromRows(
    Json.Document(
      Binary.Decompress(
        Binary.FromText(
          "XY5BC8IwDIX/ivQ8ypqlTXb3IB704HHsUGRgcdvBFcF/b5oKir28l5cvSYfBnOIy7eozjdlyzJv7q+HHd1+LYsdmMMd4vUvmIVgsSlwVib0ooXfKHab18ZLAgS/9HoMHS+LAaQAtkoKXJeVbAZHJghj0gFoTi3QtV24f1zTNpe8+m4ToCxHQ1flWwfOcnimWvzCjLQRyH7ze1NMoO804vgE=",
          BinaryEncoding.Base64
        ),
        Compression.Deflate
      )
    ),
    let
      _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true])
    in
      type table [
        #"(blank)" = _t,

        #"(blank).4" = _t
      ]
  ),
  #"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Source, [PromoteAllScalars = true]),
  #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(
    #"Promoted Headers",
    {

      {"stats2   ", type number},
      {"stats3  ", Int64.Type},
      {"stats4  ", Int64.Type}
    }
  ),
  #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(
    #"Changed Type",
    {"Name       "},
    "Attribute",
    "Value"
  ),
  #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(
    #"Unpivoted Other Columns",
    List.Distinct(#"Unpivoted Other Columns"[#"Name       "]),
    "Name       ",
    "Value",
    List.Sum
