Positions and Frequency of Injury

[Improviser]

I hope this is not an offbeat question, but of all 5 positions on the court, is any one more likely than the other ,to sustain injury?

I know centers and power forwards mix it up or should mix it up underneath, and point guards are handling the ball and driving into traffic a fair amount of time. Of course, the other two positions do that to varying degrees too.

Being probably 6’5” or taller definitely puts stress on tendons, joints, ligaments, etc vs guards who tend be more “normal” height.

Sounds like a good project for an intern for an NBA team to work on.
