Abstract
The use of smart sensor devices in basketball may provide importan!information about the physical and physiological demands during practice and competition (Fox, Scanlan, & Stanton, 2017). The assessment of acceleration and deceleration efforts is crucial in quantifying the repeated intermittent efforts performed by players (Vigh-Larsen, Dalgas, & Andersen, 2017). To date, the performance profiles of accelerations and decelerations of basketball players have been documented in the studies (Schelling and Torres, 2016; Svilar, Castellano, & Juki?, 2018; Svilar, Castellano, Jukic, & Casamichana, 2018), but little is known regarding the difference of the movement characteristics between young and professional basketball players according to playing position. Consequently, the aim of this study was to compare the movement characteristics according to specific playing position between Ul8 and professional basketball players.
