Pequeños juegos en el baloncesto: efecto de la manipulación de reglas del bote en el desempeño táctico-técnico de los jugadores de baloncesto en la categoría sub-16
El objetivo de este estudio fue verificar los efectos de la manipulación de la regla del bote durante juegos reducidos de baloncesto (JR) en la configuración táctica 3x3 sin bote (JRSB), con limitación de dos botes (JR2B) y sin limitación de bote (JRB), sobre el desempeño técnico-táctico de jugadores de baloncesto sub-16. Participaron 18 atletas de baloncesto en 36 JR, 12 JRSB, 12 JR2B y 12 JRB. La duración de cada JR fue de 4 minutos con 4 minutos de recuperación. Los JR se realizaron en orden aleatorio y en media cancha de baloncesto (8,4x15m) utilizando un solo tablero. Se utilizó el Instrumento de Evaluación del Desempeño Técnico-Táctico Individual en Baloncesto para verificar los efectos de la manipulación de la regla del bote durante los JR. Los datos fueron tratados mediante estadística descriptiva y ecuaciones generales estimadas. El tamaño del efecto (TE) se calculó utilizando la V de Cramer. El valor crítico adoptado fue p≤0,05. Los resultados identificaron una diferencia significativa en el desempeño técnico-táctico entre los JR para la toma de decisiones (TD) y la efectividad (EFi) en el pase (TD: Wald=38.48; gl=2; p= .0001; V= .68; TE: grande. EFi: Wald= 38.41; gl=2; p= .0001; V= .69; TE: grande) y en el lanzamiento (TD: Wald=14.59; gl=2; p= .001; V= .09; TE: pequeno. EFi: Wald=10.82; gl=2; p= .004; V= .26; TE: médio). Se concluye que las tres manipulaciones de la regla del bote determinaron diferencias en el desempeño técnico-táctico de los jugadores de baloncesto que participaron en este estudio.

When Mexicans Could Play Ball
In 1939, a team of short, scrappy kids from a vocational school established specifically for Mexican Americans became the high school basketball champions of San Antonio, Texas. Their win, and the ensuing riot it caused, took place against a backdrop of shifting and conflicted attitudes toward Mexican Americans and American nationalism in the WWII era. \"Only when the Mexicans went from perennial runners-up to champs,\" García writes, \"did the emotions boil over.\"
The first sports book to look at Mexican American basketball specifically,When Mexicans Could Play Ballis also a revealing study of racism and cultural identity formation in Texas. Using personal interviews, newspaper articles, and game statistics to create a compelling narrative, as well as drawing on his experience as a sports writer, García takes us into the world of San Antonio's Sidney Lanier High School basketball team, the Voks, which became a two-time state championship team under head coach William Carson \"Nemo\" Herrera. An alumnus of the school himself, García investigates the school administrators' project to Americanize the students, Herrera's skillful coaching, and the team's rise to victory despite discrimination and violence from other teams and the world outside of the school. Ultimately, García argues, through their participation and success in basketball at Lanier, the Voks players not only learned how to be American but also taught their white counterparts to question long-held assumptions about Mexican Americans.

Training load and match-play demands in basketball based on competition level: A systematic review
Basketball is a court-based team-sport that requires a broad array of demands (physiological, mechanical, technical, tactical) in training and competition which makes it important for practitioners to understand the stress imposed on the basketball player during practice and match-play. Therefore, the main aim of the present systematic review is to investigate the training and match-play demands of basketball in elite, sub-elite, and youth competition. A search of five electronic databases (PubMed, SportDiscus, Web of Science, SCOPUS, and Cochrane) was conducted until December 20th, 2019. Articles were included if the study: (i) was published in English; (ii) contained internal or external load variables from basketball training and/or competition; and (iii) reported physiological or metabolic demands of competition or practice. Additionally, studies were classified according to the type of study participants into elite (20), sub-elite (9), and youth (6). A total of 35 articles were included in the systematic review. Results indicate that higher-level players seem to be more efficient while moving on-court. When compared to sub-elite and youth, elite players cover less distance at lower average velocities and with lower maximal and average heart rate during competition. However, elite-level players have a greater bandwidth to express higher velocity movements. From the present systematic review, it seems that additional investigation on this topic is warranted before a \"clear picture\" can be drawn concerning the acceleration and deceleration demands of training and competition. It is necessary to accurately and systematically assess competition demands to provide appropriate training strategies that resemble match-play.

Influence of playing position in strength exercises performance using eccentric-overload device in young basketball players
Eccentric overload training was recently applied in movement variability analysis. The in-court response during training and match varies according to playing position, however, regarding eccentric-overload training, this dependency is scarcely explored. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of playing positions on physical parameters in strength exercises using eccentric-overload device. Nine under-16 regional level basketball players were recruited for this study. Participants were grouped according to their playing positions: point guards (n=3; height = 171.1 ±3.2 cm), wings (n=3; height = 170.7±4.1 cm) and power forwards (n=3; height = 188.2±4.1 cm). Point guards showed higher mean velocity (Vm) and Approximate entropy (ApEn) in all axis in Side. Wings presented higher ApEn in all axis in Back, while power forwards obtained a higher Vm. Finally, power forwards showed higher Vm and ApEn in all axis in Lateral.
