GOMEZ CARMONA, Carlos D. et al. Game outcome influence in external load demands in youth male basketball during official competition. CPD [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.1, pp.262-274.  Epub 17-Ago-2020. ISSN 1989-5879.

The analysis between the match status and the technical-tactical effectiveness of players and teams is very widespread. Instead, it has not enough evidence whether this phenomenon directly influences the external load demands during the competition. The objective of the present study is to analyse the influence of game outcome in the external load demands performed by youth male basketball players. 96 elite-level male U'18 basketball players of eight teams were registered during 13 matches of the Adidas Next Generation Tournament 16-17 final round using WIMU PROTM inertial devices through ultra-wide band (UWB) tracking technology. The T-Student statistical test of independent samples with Cohen's d effect size were used for the comparison analysis in relation to the game outcome: (a) balanced (<10 points) and (b) unbalanced (>10 points). Statistically significant differences were found in the external load variables analysed. The higher load demands were performed in unbalanced matches (p<.01; t=1.93-3.32; d=0.42-0.64), finding the greatest differences in impacts at all intensities (3-5G, 5-8G,> 8G). In conclusion, the score has a direct influence in the external load during official matches. Therefore, it is necessary to reproduce these situations during training to face the players with similar stimuli to the competition.
