Stress fractures are common overuse injuries among basketball players and can contribute to decrease performance if not treated. Repetitive, high-demand running and jumping predisposes basketball players to these overuse injuries. The lower extremity including the tibia, navicular, metatarsals, and foot sesamoids is the common location for stress fractures in basketball players. Without appropriate preventative measures, stress fractures remain a risk to these athletes.
