Basketball Fatigue Impact on Kinematic Parameters and 3-Point Shooting Accuracy: Insights across Players' Positions and Cardiorespiratory Fitness Associations of High-Level Players.

ABSTRACT: This study investigated the impact of basketball-induced fatigue on 3-point jump shooting accuracy, the ball's entry angle (EA) into the hoop, shot release time (RT), their relationship with player positions in high-level basketball, and the correlation between cardiorespiratory fitness markers and potential shooting performance changes. Guards (n = 13), forwards (n = 13), and centers (n = 12) underwent physiological assessments. Sequentially, they performed 15 jump shots (PRE), a basketball exercise simulation (BEST) involving 24 × 30 s circuit activities, and a repeated shooting test (POST). The study design was double-blind. The results revealed significant differences (p ≤ 0.05) in RT, EA, and successful shots (SSs) between PRE and POST in each group. The percentage changes from
