Spiteri, T, Binetti, M, Scanlan, AT, Dalbo, VJ, Dolci, F, and Specos, C. Physical determinants of Division 1 Collegiate basketball, Women's National Basketball League, and Women's National Basketball Association athletes: with reference to lower-body sidedness. J Strength Cond Res 33(1): 159-166, 2019-In female basketball, the assumed components of success include power, agility, and the proficiency at executing movements using each limb. However, the importance of these attributes in discriminating between playing levels in female basketball has yet to be determined. The purpose of this study was to compare lower-body power, change of direction (COD) speed, agility, and lower-body sidedness between basketball athletes participating in Division 1 Collegiate basketball (United States), Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) (Australia), and Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) (United States). Fifteen female athletes from each league (N = 45) completed a double- and single-leg countermovement jump (CMJ), static jump, drop jump, 5-0-5 COD test, and an offensive and a defensive agility test. One-way analysis of variance with post hoc comparisons were conducted to compare differences in physical characteristics (height, body mass, age) and performance outcomes (jump, COD, agility assessments) between playing levels. Separate dependent t-tests were performed to compare lower-body sidedness (left vs. right lower limbs) during the single-leg CMJ jumps (vertical jump height) and 5-0-5 COD test for each limb within each playing level. WNBA athletes displayed significantly greater lower-body power (p = 0.01-0.03) compared with WNBL athletes, significantly faster COD speed (p = 0.02-0.03), and offensive and defensive agility performances (p = 0.02-0.03) compared with WNBL and Collegiate athletes. The WNBL athletes also produced a faster defensive agility performance compared with Collegiate athletes (p = 0.02). Furthermore, WNBA and WNBL athletes exhibited reduced lower-body sidedness compared with Collegiate athletes. These findings indicate the importance of lower-body power, agility, and reduced lower-body imbalances to execute more proficient on-court movements required to compete at higher playing levels.
斯皮特里、T、比内蒂、M、斯坎兰、AT、达尔博、VJ、多尔奇、F 和斯佩科斯、C. 一级大学篮球、女子国家篮球联赛和女子国家篮球协会运动员的身体决定因素：以下肢偏侧性为参考。J 力量与调节研究 33(1):159-166,2019-在女子篮球中，成功的假设组成部分包括力量、敏捷性和使用每只肢体执行动作的熟练程度。然而，这些属性在区分女子篮球的比赛水平中的重要性尚未确定。本研究的目的是比较参加一级大学篮球（美国）、女子国家篮球联赛（WNBL）（澳大利亚）和女子国家篮球协会（WNBA）（美国）的篮球运动员的下肢力量、变向速度、敏捷性和下肢偏侧性。每个联盟各有 15 名运动员（N=45）完成了双侧和单侧的反跳（CMJ）、静态跳、跳降、5-0-5 变向测试以及进攻和防守敏捷性测试。采用单向方差分析和事后比较来比较身体特征（身高、体重、年龄）和表现结果（跳、变向、敏捷性评估）在比赛水平之间的差异。对每个比赛水平中每条腿的单侧 CMJ 跳（垂直跳高度）和 5-0-5 变向测试的下肢偏侧性（左下肢与右下肢）进行了独立的 t 检验。与 WNBL 运动员相比，WNBA 运动员的下肢力量显著更大（p=0.01-0.03），与 WNBL 和大学运动员相比，变向速度更快（p=0.02-0.03），以及进攻和防守敏捷性表现更好（p=0.02-0.03）。WNBL 运动员的防守敏捷性表现也比大学运动员更快（p=0.02）。此外，WNBA 和 WNBL 运动员的下肢偏侧性比大学运动员更小。这些发现表明，下肢力量、敏捷性和下肢失衡的减少对于执行更高比赛水平所需的更熟练的场上动作很重要。
