Relevance of the topic. Lithuania is not a large country and sports talents are not emerging very often. It does not depend on the social or economic situation of the country (Schnabel et al., 1994; Cedaro, 2000; Carling et al., 2009). When giving the opportunity for the talent to achieve positive results in sports, the talented personalities have to be selected, the purposeful training program has to be concluded as well as the monitoring of the practical implementation of the program has to be performed (Regnier et al., 1993; Durand-Bush, Salmela, 2001; Abernethy, 2008; Vaeyens et al., 2008; Bailey et al., 2010; Burgess, Naughton, 2010; Philips et al., 2010; Ford et al., 2011). Therefore it is very important that the training of the athletes has to be conceptualized, so a small quantity of the talented athletes is developed as optimally as possible. Inaccurate training system prevents the athletes from revealing their own potential. Thus, only the consistent sports training system shall stimulate a more rapid improvement of the sports results, as it is harder to identify a talent than to develop it (Balyi, Hamilton, 1999; Raslanas, 2001; Malina et al., 2004; Balyi, Williams, 2009; Stafford, 2010).
It was considered for a long time that success in sports depends solely on the athletes, who are physically strong and developed tactically (Krasilshchikov, 2011), however, due to increase of the competition between athletes (De Bosscher et al., 2006) and major political and...

Tai nepriklauso nuo šalies socialinės ar ekonominės padėties (Schnabel et al., 1994; Cedaro, 2000; Carling et al., 2009). Norint išugdyti talentingą sportininką, siekiantį didelių sportinių rezultatų, reikia atrinkti gabias asmenybes, sudaryti kryptingą rengimo programą ir nuosekliai ją įgyvendinti praktikoje (Regnier et al., 1993; Durand-Bush, Salmela, 2001; Abernethy, 2008; Vaeyens et al., 2008; Bailey et al., 2010; Burgess, Naughton, 2010; Philips et al., 2010; Ford et al., 2011). Todėl labai aktualu konceptualizuoti sportininkų rengimą ir taikyti optimalius talentingų sportininkų ugdymo metodus. Netiksli rengimo sistema neleidžia sportininkams iki galo atskleisti savo galimybių, o nuosekli sportinio rengimo sistema gali paspartinti sportinių rezultatų gerėjimą, padėti atrasti talentą ir jį išugdyti (Balyi, Hamilton, 1999; Raslanas, 2001; Malina et al., 2004; Balyi, Williams, 2009; Stafford, 2010). Daugelį metų buvo manoma, kad didelių sportinių laimėjimų gali pasiekti tik fiziškai stiprūs ir gerai taktiškai pasirengę sportininkai (Krasilshchikov, 2011), tačiau vis didėjant konkurencijai tarp sportininkų (De Bosscher et. al., 2006) ir stiprėjant sporto sektoriaus politinei bei komercinei reikšmei (Green, Oakley, 2001) kyla būtinybė kurti kiekvienos sporto šakos daugiamečio rengimo programas (Balyi, Hamilton, 2004; Balyi, Williams, 2009; Stafford, 2010).

Full textAbstract:
Two separate field studies were conducted to examine the predictions of the multidimensional anxiety theory with both elite able-bodied basketball players and elite wheelchair basketball players. A secondary purpose of this study was to examine the influence of functional classification on cognitive and somatic anxiety and self-confidence in wheelchair athletes. In experiment one, twelve collegiate basketball players completed the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-II) prior to each of nine league games and in experiment two, thirty-one elite wheel chair basketball players completed the CSAI-II prior to each of three tournament games. Results were analyzed in both field studies using the intraindividual procedures recommended by Sonstroem and Bernado (1982) and separate polynomial trend analyses were used to test the predictions of multidimensional anxiety theory. Results did not provide statistical support for multidimensional anxiety theory in that there were no reliable trends between cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, self-confidence and basketball performance in both field studies. In experiment two, results indicated that no significant differences in cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety and self-confidence occurred as a function of wheelchair classification.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (MTech (Sport Management))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2016.Basketball in South Africa (SA) is viewed as a secondary and social sport, even at national level (Radovic, 2010). The South African female national basketball team is ranked 70 out of 73 countries globally (FIBA, 2014a). There are many possible reasons for the poor success of the team; one contributing factor could be their anthropometric and fitness characteristics. To date, there have been no published research studies investigating the anthropometric and fitness characteristics of female basketball players in SA. The primary aim of this study was to examine the anthropometric and fitness characteristics of SA female basketball players, in three groups: players in university, provincial leagues and those in the national squad. The secondary aim was to investigate the structures in place for managing and monitoring the strength and conditioning of these players. This research study is the first to examine and compare anthropometric and fitness characteristics of female basketball players at different playing levels in SA.

Botts, Mary. "Levels of engagement among male, college basketball players." Doctoral diss., University of Central Florida, 2012. http://digital.library.ucf.edu/cdm/ref/collection/ETD/id/5137.
Full textAbstract:
This study examined the engagement of male, college basketball players within the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The literature review shows a connection between engaging in educationally purposeful activities and student retention. Because some student athletes, male collegiate basketball players in particular, struggle to graduate at the same rate as their fellow student athletes, student engagement offers one lens to examine the educational experiences of basketball players. The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) was used to collect levels of engagement along four identified variables. These four variables, part of Chickering and Gamson's Seven Principles for Good Undergraduate Education, were relevant to the study as they were factors student athletes could control. These factors included: active learning, cooperation among students, interaction with faculty, and time on task. Student athlete responses were analyzed by three factors including NCAA athletic division, race, and highest level of parental education. This study found no significant difference in levels of engagement among the NCAA's three athletic divisions. Additionally, no significant differences in engagement were found based on the highest level of education reached by the student athlete's parents. Last, ethnic background presented only one significant difference within the active learning variable. The other three variables showed no significant difference based on race. The lack of statistical differences is meaningful as it signifies the strength of the basketball culture. The culture of this sport permeates all divisions of college basketball and transcends the background of its players. Thus, players who should display different levels of engagement based on institutional or background characteristics display similar levels of engagement.Ed.D.

172 college basketball players (56 males, 116 females) from NCAA Divisions I, II, and III were analyzed to determine how mental imagery ability (lA) relates to high and low physical performance. Investigation centered on performance lA (the ability to create, recall, and manipulate images during action) as a potential factor for competitive separation (athletic distinction between high and low performers). More specifically, research examined which of several imagery functions or types were the best predictors of successful basketball game performance. It was hypothesized that kinesthetic imagery and cognitive imagery would be the most important imagery functions. The Basketball Background Questionnaire (BBQ; Eslinger, 2002), Movement Imagery Questionnaire-Revised (MIQ-R; Hall & Martin, 1997), and the Sport Imagery Questionnaire (SIQ; Hall, Mack, Paivio, & Hausenblas, 1998) were utilized as measures of lA while physical performance was calculated using the Basketball-Performance Statistic Rating (B-PSR; Eslinger, 2002). Additional data was collected from selected athletes to identify characteristics related to imagery use and development. Results from correlation, multiple regression, t-tests, ANOVA, and discriminant function analyses suggest that, in general, basketball performance is best enhanced through kinesthetic imagery and motivational specific imagery. Elite players are able to perform consistently at a high level because they have an ability to feel the action and increase their internal drive for success before and during games. Surprisingly, cognitive general imagery scores were higher in low-level players, suggesting these athletes think "too much" during competition. In addition, depending on gender, playing position, and NCAA division, other types of imagery may be important influences of performance. Differences and associations between high and low performers and imagers as they relate to the B-PSR and seven types of imagery ability are discussed. A new model of performance imagery is highlighted based on previous theories and current results. Directions for future research are covered that shape sport psychology research, application, and possible imagery training techniques for basketball players and coaches.

Full textAbstract:
A. Aleksejev (2005), who has been analysing problems of managing athletes’ mental
states and self-efficacy for thirty years, argues that a self-confident athlete, able to manage their psychophysical
condition and technique, will feel no anxiety about the sports results. As sports activities take place
under the difficult conditions of practice and competition, athletes need particular self-efficacy and mental
stability. We believe that it is necessary to reveal the peculiarities of self-efficacy of young basketball players
because self-efficacy essentially includes opportunities for the self-actualization of many personal needs.
However, the research has not yet proven that the development of self-efficacy enhances social adaptation of
student athletes (Malinauskas, 2004; 2006). Moreover, at present we have too few educational programmes for the development of self-efficacy of young basketball players that could also be applied in the course of basketball coaching (Wang, Biddle, 2001; Malinauskas, 2001; 2003; Šniras, 2005). The further necessity of the study of this problem determined the topic of our dissertation research.
There is a situation in athlete training system where there is a conflict between the need to purposefully and systematically develop self-efficacy of young athletes and a lack of the solution of the problem in athlete’s personality development practice as well as the lack of research revealing the dependence of self-efficacy on athletes’ age.

Sportinis meistriškumas daug priklauso nuo to, kaip išugdytos sportininko psichinės savybės, koks jo savaveiksmiškumas (Aleksejevas, 2005). Mūsų manymu, yra būtina atskleisti jaunųjų krepšininkų savaveiksmiškumo ypatumus, kadangi savaveiksmiškumas savo esybe įtraukia daugelio asmenybės poreikių realizacijos galimybes. Vis dėlto tyrimais dar nėra įrodyta, kaip savaveiksmiškumo ugdymas stiprina sportuojančių mokinių socialinę adaptaciją (Malinauskas, 2004; 2006). Šuo metu yra per mažai sukurta ugdymo programų, kurios būtų tinkamos jaunųjų krepšininkų savaveiksmiškumui ugdyti, ir kurias būtų galima pasitelkti krepšinio pratybų metu (Wang, Biddle, 2001; Malinauskas, 2001; 2003; Šniras, 2005). Tolimesnis šios problemos tyrimo bei nagrinėjimo būtinumas ir nulėmė mūsų disertacinio tyrimo temą ir mokslinę problemą, formuluojamą klausimu: kaip savaveiksmiškumas priklauso nuo sportininkų amžiaus (jaunučiai ir jauniai) ir nuo ugdymo programos poveikio? Šis klausimas bei atsakymo į jį paieška ir sudaro šio disertacijos tyrimo mokslinio problemiškumo pagrindą.Probleminio klausimo formulavimas leido suformuluoti šio tyrimo hipotezę: taikant ugdymo programą galima tikėtis didesnio jaunųjų krepšininkų savaveiksmiškumo.

Full textAbstract:
How people perform tasks and under what circumstances they perform them optimally has been a fascination for humanity for a long time and more particularly whether people perform better or worse under pressure. In this paper, I try to find out whether people perform better or worse when there is pressure. The data used is the free throw percentages for teams of the Swedish basketball leagues “Svenska basketligan” and “Svenska Superettan” for both men and women 2003-2019. I then investigate if the teams perform worse or better when games have a lot of pressure. I use definitions of pressure such as the size of the audience, if the game was close in terms of points and whether it was a playoff game. The findings are that for certain definitions of pressure, such as if the game was close and the size of the audience, players performed worse.

Full textAbstract:
This study was an attempt to identify the factors that female basketball players consider important in their selection of a college to attend. A questionnaire was sent to all scholarship-granting junior colleges and Division I National Collegiate Athletic Association universities in the State of Texas during the 1991 spring semester. Students from 11 junior colleges and 11 Division I universities replied to the survey. The findings of this study are based on data collected from the 244 subjects' responses to a four-page, paired-comparison questionnaire. According to the junior college basketball players, the availability of scholarships and the opportunity to play were the two most important factors in their sleection of a college. Six other factors that were considered important to the junior college players' selection of a college were parental influence, the head coach, degrees offered, high school coaches' influence, geographical location of the university, and the style of ball played. The availability of scholarships was the most important factor in Division I female basketball players' selection of a university. Five other factors considered to be significant by Division I female players were the opportunity to play, the geographical location of the university, the degrees offered, the university facilities, and the head coach. A high positive correlation was found between the rankings of the junior college and the Division I female basketball players.

Full textAbstract:
The purposes of this study were to quantify, in three dimensions (3D), kinematic parameters of the free throw shot with both the women's small ball and the large ball, and to compare the parameters of the small ball to the large ball. Nine female varsity college basketball players were filmed and the 3D data were computed with the Nonlinear Transformation method. Statistical analysis of parameters including ball trajectory and body position failed to show an effect for ball condition. Since the velocity of release was not statistically different between the two balls and the ball mass was different, the results suggest that impulse is the differing factor.

Full textAbstract:
Strong evidence exists to support the use of a continuous (>8hr/day) hypoxic stimulus (either geographical altitude or simulated hypoxia) for enhancing the physical performance of endurance athletes. However, evidence supporting the use of acutely intermittent hypoxia (<1hr/day) for enhancing performance is less clear. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of acutely intermittent hypoxic exposure on physiological and physical performance measures in team sport athletes. Using a single-blind controlled design, 14 trained basketball players (HYP = 7, CON = 7) were subjected to 15 days of intermittent hypoxia or normoxia. Each exposure was 37 minutes in duration (four cycles of 7min on, 3min off) and achieved using a nitrogen dilution device (Airo Ltd, Auckland, NZ). Prescribed peripheral oxygen saturation levels (SpO2) were maintained using an automatic biofeedback system and were progressively decreased from 86-89% on Day 1 to 75-78% on Day 15. A range of physiological measures and performance tests were conducted seven and two days before, and ten days after the intervention. The tests were: an incremental treadmill test to establish peak oxygen consumption ( peak) and running economy (RE), Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test (YYIRT), and the Repeated High-Intensity Endurance Test (RHIET). Whole-blood samples were taken to assess a range of haematological measures. At 10 days post-intervention the HYP group, relative to the CON group, exhibited the following percent changes (±90% confidence limits, CL), and effect sizes (ES; ±90% CL); YYIRT running speedpeak (4.8; ± 1.6%, ES: 1.0 ± 0.4; benefit almost certain), RHIET total sprint time (-3.5; ± 1.6%; ES: -0.4 ± 0.2; benefit very likely), RHIET slowest sprint time (-5.0; ± 2.4%; ES: -0.5 ± 0.2; benefit very likely), soluble transferrin receptor (9.2; ± 10.1%; ES: 0.3 ± 0.3; benefit possible) running economy (11km.hr-1) (-9.0; ± 9.7%; ES: -0.7 ± 0.7; benefit likely, probable), and running economy (13km.hr-1) (-8.2; ± 6.9%; ES: -0.7 ± 0.5; benefit likely, probable). Changes to running economy (9km.hr-1), peak, maximum heart rate and lactate and all other blood measures were unclear. In conclusion, acutely intermittent hypoxia resulted in worthwhile changes in physical performance of trained basketball players in tests relevant to competition. However, the lack of clear change in physiological and haematological measures makes it difficult to determine the underlying mechanism for such enhancement.

Nathanson, Desiree L. "Halftime Hydration and Snacking Practices in Collegiate and Professional Basketball and Football Players." Digital Archive @ GSU, 2010. http://digitalarchive.gsu.edu/nutrition_theses/8.
Full textAbstract:
Background: Sustaining a hydration state and energy status during competition is important for athletes, yet there is no current evidence in the literature that halftime hydration and snacking practices of basketball and football players have been assessed. Under ideal circumstances, proper hydration and food consumption practices should be followed by basketball and football players before, during and after practices and competitions because both sports involve fast rate of energy utilization with a concomitant increase in sweat production.
Objectives: This study aimed to improve our understanding of the halftime hydration and snacking practices used by basketball and football players at the collegiate and professional levels.
Methods: A total of 122 subjects filled out a halftime habit survey. The survey was completely anonymous to protect the identity of the athletes participating in the study. Athletic trainers and coaches of basketball and football teams, athlete agents, other athletic team employees, and players were contacted and provided with copies of a questionnaire to distribute to athletes. Data were analyzed using PASW Statistics 18. Data for height and weight were analyzed using descriptive statistics and all remaining data were analyzed using crosstabs and included a Chi Square Test.
Results: Of the beverages consumed by the 122 athletes surveyed, there was a statistically significant difference between sports in the consumption of Gatorade (n=89, p-.045), Powerade (n=41, p<.001), Powerade Zero (n=1, p=.020), and water (n=96, p=.049). There was a statistically significant difference between sports in the consumption of energy bars (n=62, p=<.001) and fresh fruit (n=41, p=.033). There was a statistically significant difference between sports in the purchase of snacks for halftime (p=.004) and the frequency of halftime snacking habits (p<.001). There is a statistically significant difference between sports in the halftime recommendations of teams for both hydration (p<.001) and snacking (p<.001). There is a statistically significant difference among sports in the influence of first half drinking practices on halftime hydration habits (p=.035). There is a statistically significant difference among sports in the extent of weight lost during a game (p<.001).
Conclusions: The results of this study show that athletes have the time and resources to drink and snack a the halftime break to replenish glycogen stores and rehydrate for the second half of the game. Athletes, whether by recommendation or by habit, consume a variety of beverages and snacks during the halftime breaks of games. It is still uncertain as to whether or not these hydration and snacking habits actually replenish glycogen stores and rehydrate the athletes for the second half of games. Future studies should be done to determine whether the hydration and snacking habits are maintaining hydration and sustaining blood glucose for better performance.

Each year the NBA draft helps determines the future success of the NBA team and during the 1990’s to 2000’s international players were being drafted at a high rate. Why was this happening and were international players more successful than domestic players throughout their careers? Through my study I wanted to examine what determines success for NBA players and whether certain statistical or award performances affects their career. Furthermore I wanted to see the effects that international players had on team attendance throughout their NBA career. Ultimately I wanted to see how NBA coaches, executives, and fans value international players. This study aims to provide insight regarding international players and their success in the NBA.

Full textAbstract:
Female intercollegiate basketball players experience a three times greater rate of ACL injuries than their male counterparts. This investigation hypothesized that women and men perform the cutting maneuver differently with respect to ground reaction forces and knee range of motion.The subjects performed a ninety degree cut on a force platform while being video taped. The male subjects exhibited a 23.1 percent greater (p=.0167) knee flexion angle than did the female subjects. The female subjects exhibited a 25.5 percent greater (p=.0022) braking force than did the male subjects. The impact maximum was not statistically significant (p=.3290).The performance characteristics exhibited by the female subjects in this study would suggest that the cutting maneuver is more dangerous for female basketball player. Female athletes should be taught correct performance of the cutting maneuver. I addition to technique, strength training should be encouraged to develop a stronger secondary stabilization mechanism for the knee.School of Physical Education

Subject three entered the IACT+M condition directly following baseline. Free throws, Mikan drill and three-ball dribbling where the three skills being assessed as well as psychological flexibility using two the assessment tools. The results suggest that brief ACT interventions may be useful for improving practice performance for collegiate basketball players. Participant one had an average increase for free throws by M=12.9%, a M=5% increase in the Mikan drill, and M=3.3% increase in the three-ball drill. Participant two had an average increase of M=7.3% for free throws, M=1.8% increase in the Mikan drill and M=0.4% increase in the three-ball drill. Participant three had an average increase of M=13% for free throws, 1.8% increase in the Mikan drill and a M=2% increase in the three-ball drill.

Purposes：This research mainly studied the effect of game period and players’ position on college basketball players’ running distance and running speed according to 2010 UBA quarterfinals. It discussed the difference of running distance and running speed for players at different positions (point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward game days, and center) between different game days. Method：The author collected information in 28 games, using SIMI scout to analyze skills and strategies on competition period and record players at different positions, running distance, and running speed. Information was collected from the test of independent samples of variance analysis, interaction significant simple main effect tests, the significance level (α) set at .05. Results：1.Competition period has major effect on college basketball players’ running distance (F = 28.663, p <.05). The analysis found that the running distance in the first, second, third, and fourth day is greater than in the fifth, six, seven days; besides, the running distance in the second and third day is greater than in the fourth day; and the running distance in the third day is greater than the first day. 2. There is an interaction between competition period and players’ position on basketball players’ running speed (F = 1.625, p <.05). Through effect analyzing, it is found that the running speed in the first day of the point guard is slower than of the forward, power forward and center. Besides, guard run faster in the first day than in the other six days; small forward run faster in the first three days than in the seventh day, and faster in the third day than in the fourth day and in the sixth day. Moreover, center run faster in the second, five and six days than in the fourth day.In short, college basketball players’ running distance and speed is decreasing gradually with the game going on; thus, physical training is important to college basketball players, especially the especially in a after training section.

The aim of this study was examine the variation of individual performance profiles in basketball, between national and international leagues and examine if the magnitude of this variation is affected by age and playing position. The players’ profiles, including age and playing position were collected from official league websites. A total of 1627 official boxscores from national and international leagues, from 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 seasons, were considered for this study. Besides the traditional notational analysis, we also computed the distance traveled and days of rest between national and international matches. Firstly, was realized a two-step cluster analysis to group the players into different groups. Posteriorly, one-way independent measure ANOVA was used to explore the difference of the within and between the obtained clusters; and finally, a descriptive discriminant analysis was conducted to identify which variables best discriminate the obtained clusters. The results showed that the number of clusters is different between both competitions, revealing a variation in the individual performance profiles. Factors such as distance traveled, time played and players' age, affected the performances in the international competition, however in the national competitions, distance traveled, match break and time played were the variables with a great discriminatory influence. This information can help in the development and optimization of performance specific profiles according with competitions, and can facilitate the detailed planning for specific groups of players and teams, contemplating the performance on the training session and on the game.O objetivo deste estudo foi examinar a variação dos perfis de desempenho individuais no basquete, entre as ligas nacionais e internacionais e examinar se a magnitude dessa variação é afetada pela idade e posição de jogo. Os perfis dos jogadores, incluindo idade e posição de jogo, foram coletados dos sites oficiais da liga. Um total de 1627 boletins oficiais das ligas nacionais e internacionais, das épocas 2014-2015 e 2015-2016, foram considerados para este estudo. Além da análise notacional tradicional, calculamos também a distância percorrida e os dias de descanso entre os jogos nacionais e internacionais. Em primeiro lugar, realizou-se uma análise de cluster de dois passos para agrupar os jogadores em diferentes grupos. Posteriormente, uma análise de variância ANOVA foi utilizada para explorar a diferença entre os clusters dos agrupamentos obtidos; e, finalmente, uma análise discriminante descritiva foi conduzida para identificar quais variáveis melhor discriminam os clusters obtidos. Os resultados mostraram que o número de clusters é diferente entre as duas competições, revelando uma variação nos perfis de desempenho individuais. Fatores como a distância percorrida, o tempo jogado e a idade dos jogadores afetaram os desempenhos na competição internacional, no entanto, nas competições nacionais, a distância percorrida, intervalo entre jogos e o tempo jogado foram as variáveis com a maior influência discriminatória. Esta informação pode ajudar no desenvolvimento e otimização de perfis específicos de desempenho, de acordo com as competições e pode facilitar o planeamento detalhado para grupos específicos de jogadores e equipes, contemplando o desempenho na sessão de treinamento e no jogo.

Professional basketball players working oversea in China has become a new trend. From2008 to 2010 in Taiwan, the number of male professional basketball players was 3 times increased comparing to it in 2000. Also, one Taiwanese female basketball player joins Chinese Basketball Alliance (CBA) each year. However, there was no research regarding the overseas adaptation of Taiwanese professional basketball players working at CBA in China conducted in Taiwan. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to explore the issues of overseas adaptation and adjustment among Taiwanese professional basketball players. In this study, 4 professional basketball players who have ever worked at CBA in China were recruited. In-depth interviews were conducted to understand their overseas adaptations. The findings of this study were categorized into 5 categories: “life adaptation”, “culture adaptation”, “mental adaptation”, “work adaptation”and “the other”includes 10 subcategories: environment, natural condition, culture shock, negative organizational identification, workplace competition, and accompanier. Based on above research results, several suggestions were offered for further studies.

With the increasing popularity and competition in professional basketball in the past decade, data driven decision has emerged as a big competitive edge. The advent of high frequency player tracking data from SportVU has enabled a rigorous analysis of player abilities and interactions that was not possible before. The tracking data records two-dimensional x-y coordinates of 10 players on the court as well as the x-y-z coordinates of the ball at a resolution of 25 frames per second, yielding over 1 billion space-time observations over the course of a full season. This dissertation offers a collection of spatio-temporal models and player evaluation metrics that provide insight into the player interactions and their performance, hence allowing the teams to make better decisions.
Conventional approaches to simulate matches have ignored that in basketball the dynamics of ball movement is very sensitive to the lineups on the court and unique identities of players on both offense and defense sides. In chapter 2, we propose the simulation infrastructure that can bridge the gap between player identity and team level network. We model the progression of a basketball match using a probabilistic graphical model. We model every touch event in a game as a sequence of transitions between discrete states. We treat the progression of a match as a graph, where each node represents the network structure of players on the court, their actions, events, etc., and edges denote possible moves in the game flow. Our results show that either changes in the team lineup or changes in the opponent team lineup significantly affects the dynamics of a match progression. Evaluation on the match data for the 2013-16 NBA season suggests that the graphical model approach is appropriate for modeling a basketball match.
NBA teams value players who can ``stretch'' the floor, i.e. create space on the court by drawing their defender(s) closer to themselves. Clearly, this ability to attract defenders varies across players, and furthermore, this effect may also vary by the court location of the offensive player, and whether or not the player is the ball handler. For instance, a ball-handler near the basket attracts a defender more when compared to a non ball-handler at the 3 point line. This has a significant effect on the defensive assignment. This is particularly important because defensive assignment has become the cornerstone of all tracking data based player evaluation models. In chapter 3, we propose a new model to learn player and court location specific offensive attraction. We show that offensive players indeed have varying ability to attract the defender in different parts of the court. Using this metric, teams can evaluate players to construct a roster or lineup which maximizes spacing. We also improve upon the existing defensive matchup inference algorithm for SportVU data.
While the ultimate goal of the offense is to shoot the ball, the strategy lies in creating good shot opportunities. Offensive play event detection has been a topic of research interest. Current research in this area have used a supervised learning approach to detect and classify such events. We took an unsupervised learning approach to detect these events. This has two inherent benefits: first, there is no need for pretagged data to learn identifying these events which is a lobor intensive and error prone task; second, an unsupervised approach allows us to detect events that has not been tagged yet i.e. novel events. We use a HMM based approach to detect these events at any point in the time during a possession by specifying the functional form of the prior distribution on the player movement data. We test our framework on detecting ball screen, post up, and drive. However, it can be easily extended to events like isolation or a new event that has certain distinct defensive matchup or player movement feature compared to a non event. This is the topic for chapter 4.
Accurate estimation of the offensive and the defensive abilities of players in the NBA plays a crucial role in player selection and ranking. A typical approach to estimate players' defensive and offensive abilities is to learn the defensive assignment for each shot and then use a random effects model to estimate the offensive and defensive abilities for each player. The scalar estimate from the random effects model can then be used to rank player. In this approach, a shot has a binary outcome, either it is made or it is a miss. This approach is not able to take advantage of the “quality” of the shot trajectory. In chapter 5, we propose a new method for ranking players that infers the quality of a shot trajectory using a deep recurrent neural network, and then uses this quality measure in a random effects model to rank players taking defensive matchup into account. We show that the quality information significantly improves the player ranking. We also show that including the quality of shots increases the separation between the learned random effect coefficients, and thus, allows for a better differentiation of player abilities. Further, we show that we are able to infer changes in the player's ability on a game-by-game basis when using a trajectory based model. A shot based model does not have enough information to detect changes in player's ability on a game-by-game basis.
A good defensive player prevents its opponent from making a shot, attempting a good shot, making an easy pass, or scoring events, eventually leading to wasted shot clock time. The salient feature here is that a good defender prevents events. Consequently, event driven metrics, such as box scores, cannot measure defensive abilities. Conventional wisdom in basketball is that ``pesky'' defenders continuously maintain a close distance to the ball handler. A closely guarded offensive player is less likely to take or make a shot, less likely to pass, and more likely to lose the ball. In chapter 6, we introduce Defensive Efficiency Rating (DER), a new statistic that measures the defensive effectiveness of a player. DER is the effective distance a defender maintains with the ball handler during an interaction where we control for the identity and wingspan of the the defender, the shot efficiency of the ball handler, and the zone on the court. DER allows us to quantify the quality of defensive interaction without being limited by the occurrence of discrete and infrequent events like shots and rebounds. We show that the ranking from this statistic naturally picks out defenders known to perform well in particular zones.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate biomechanical analysis of basketball shooting at different positions (central: 90°; right: 45°) and distances(4.25m、5.25m,and6.25m) on female basketball players. Methods: Five Women’s Super Basketball League (WSBL) players participated in this study. They were asked to performed straight ten shootings at each of the eight different positions; meanwhile, the goal percentage was recorded. Joint locations (finger, wrist, elbow, shoulder, and hip) on which were pasted reflective paster were collected by high-speed camera (600 Hz), and these locations were used to analyze kinematics data. Ground reaction forces (GRFs) at the moment of jumping were collected by Kistler force plate (1200Hz) to analyze kinetics data. The joint angles and GRFs at different positions and distances were analyzed by Repeated measures ANOVA. Results: In joint angle aspect: In 5m distance, there is significant different (p<.05) in shoulder joint at 90°position; In 7m distance, there are significant different (p<.05) in shoulder、elbow and ankle joint(p<.05). In 5m, there are significant different (p<.05) in shoulder、wrist、hip and ankle joint (p<.05) at 45°position, and significant different (p<.05) in wrist、hip knee and ankle joint (p<.05) in 6.30m; significant different (p<.05) in knee and ankle in 7.0m. In angular velocity aspect: there are significant different (p<.05) in angular velocity in 6.30 and 7.0m in two positions. There are significant different (p<.05) in release angle、angle of entry and release speed at 90°, however, there is significant different (p<.05) in release angle in 6.30m at 45°. In GRFs aspect: there are significant different (p<.05) in medial-lateral impulse in 5m and 90°. But there are not in significant different in 4 different vertical and peak medial-lateral impulse at 90° and 45°.In goal percentage: there are no significant different in goal percentage at two positions.Conclusion: In this study, different positions and distances can affect the joint angle、angular velocity and GRFs while shooting. The movement pattern changed especially in the 3 point shot position. The key factor to influent the gold percentage is vision at different positions and distances, therefore, the shooting movement pattern will influent by shooting position and distance when players shooing at different positions but same distance.

Purpose: To investigate the changes in physical performance during different phases of the annual training program in elite male high school basketball athletes. Methods: Ten male elite high school basketball players were recruited, and their basketball-specific sports performance (i.e. T-agility, planned agility, 10/20-m sprints, countermovement jump, and yo-yo test) were periodically evaluated during the regular training (RT), competition season (CS), and postseason (PS). Results: (1) The physical activity (PA) during the CS was 11.7% less than the RT period, and the PA during the post-season period was 30% higher than that of the competition period. (2) The aerobic capacity during the CS was 8.6% less than that of the RT period. (3) The 10 m / 20 m sprint performance during CS period was significantly slower than the RT period (10 m: -13.1%; 20 m: -5.4%). (4) Planned-agility performance during PS was better than that during CS (p = 0.001), and the Agility-T performance was not different among varied periods. Conclusion: The results of this study reveals that the sprint performance, aerobic endurance, physical activity levels, agility performance during CS were lower than the RT and PS period in the elite male high school basketball players.
