Establishing a strong evidence base with high-quality and impactful research is essential in enhancing decision-making processes to optimize player performance for basketball professionals. Consequently, the book entitled Improving Performance and Practice in Basketball provides a collection of novel research studies to increase the available evidence on various topics with strong translation to practice in basketball. The book includes work by 40 researchers from 16 institutions or professional organizations from 9 countries. In keeping with notable topics in basketball research, the book contains 2 reviews focused on monitoring strategies to detect player fatigue and considerations for travel in National Basketball Association players. In addition, 8 applied studies are also included in the book, focused on workload monitoring, game-related statistics, and the measurement of physical and skill attributes in basketball players. This book also has a strong focus on increasing the evidence available for female basketball players, who have traditionally been under-represented in the literature. The outcomes generated from this book should provide new insights to inform practice in many areas for professionals working in various roles with basketball teams. 606 $aTraditional medicine & herbal remedies$2bicssc 610 $aaccelerometer 610 $aathlete 610 $aathletic performance 610 $aattention 610 $abasketball 610 $abasketball performance 610 $abasketball tactics 610 $abody composition 610 $abody fat 610 $acircadian rhythm 610 $aclassification tree 610 $acollegiate athletes 610 $acountermovement jump 610 $aelite sport 610 $afat free mass 610 $afatigue 610 $afemale 610 $agame-related statistics 610 $ainjury 610 $amachine learning 610 $amaturation 610 $amicrotechnology 610 $amonitoring 610 $amotor manual sequences 610 $aMovement Assessment Battery for Children-2 610 $an/a 610 $aNBA 610 $anon-linear analysis 610 $aperformance analysis 610 $aplaying position 610 $asleep 610 $asmallest worthwhile change 610 $atalent selection 610 $ateam sports 610 $atraining load 610 $avariability 610 $avisuo-spatial working memory 610 $awomen athletes 610 $aworkloads 610 $ayouth athletes 615 7$aTraditional medicine & herbal remedies 700 $aScanlan$b Aaron$4auth$01323468 702 $aDalbo$b Vincent$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910367745403321 996 $aImproving Practice and Performance in Basketball$93035587 997 $aUNINA
