Of all sports-related injuries treated in the emergency room, basketball accounts for over 34%. Basketball-related injuries are the most common type of sports-related injury in patients under the age of 25 years and second in those aged 25–40 years. The ankle is by far the most common joint injured in the National Basketball Association, with ankle sprains being the most common type of injury to the ankle. Prevention strategies, functional rehabilitation, and judicious use of operative intervention are all important in the management of the injured basketball player for safe and timely return to play.
