Message: [QUOTE="CalWBBfan, post: 4868017, member: 3603"] The above is from a recent study done and relates to NBA athletes, but I would assume it could apply to others playing basketball as well.

From other things I've read certain training exercises can help but don't seem to be as effective in terms of basketball but this is an older study (2014) [URL='https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1466853X13001120']Effects of knee injury primary prevention programs on anterior cruciate ligament injury rates in female athletes in different sports[/URL] [/QUOTE]
