Anyone know if there's a similar map for Eastern europe? Turns out that Vlade Divac is R1b, his son did a test. His tall height must be from indo-europeans

So this map disproves the notion that Iberian celts are connected to British Isles celts/britons, even though they're both dark, interesting

Vlade Divac is R1b-Z2103 apparently. R1b-Z2103 isn't that common in Western Europe. In Italy a lot of it, if not most of it, is either from recent Balkan immigrants like Greeks, Albanians or Bronze Age / Iron Age Illyrian migrants from the Western Balkans I am pretty sure such as the Iapygians/Messapians who also brought J2b2-L283. There are also branches of R1b-Z2103 found in Iron Age Northern Macedonia.
This is a proto-Illyrian marker for sure but also found among few Bronze Age Bulgarian samples together with R1a-Z93 and there are different branches / clades. I think more Ancient DNA needs to be found to establish how all these lineages spread. So far J2b2-L283 and R1b-Z2103 lack in samples in Italy prior to proto-Illyrian migration same way some of the R-L2, R-L51 in the Balkans can be contributed to some Italics.

R1b-Z2103 is also very common in Armenians apparently

Iberia is a region that is clearly much more recently linked with Western Europe and Central Europe through Corded Ware and Bell Beakers than say a region like the Balkans.
Iberian languages died out during Roman period but whatever IE languages were spoken there came from CW. There is also Basques which is non-IE but so was Etruscan despite they show IE influence. Iberia however has a lot of pre-IE influence and this can also be seen by where IA / BA Iberia plots .

the R-M269 branched in various directions from central European areas, with various mutations leading to diff subclade titles, but while the y-chromosomes may be very similar still and have the same common grandpas, there is so much other DNA that's gotten mixed into these areas which makes each group/region more and more unique. I like this chart for easy view of R-M269 subclades:
