Abstract

These days, basketball has become increasingly linked to psychophysical aspects rather than technical ones. In the last few years, this has and continues to be the picture we see from the United States and its NBA, the very cream of world basketball, as well as in our own top-level championships in Italy. In fact, we feel that a peak has been reached and that now a return to a more careful consideration of technique is desirable, if not essential. Players’ excessive specialization in the various positions, which has led to a significant drop in technical skills, should make way for training that while obviously still being specialist, is also more versatile and for all players in all positions, above all at pre-senior age (18/19 years).
