Objectives: to analyse the frequency and type of lower extremity injuries in basketball and to determine the predictor factors that contribute the most to lower extremity injuries in basketball. Study Design: a cross-sectional study was conducted Participants and Methods: respondents are males and females who actively train basketball. A survey questionnaire and measuring of basic anthropometric characteristics were used to collect data. Results: out of a total of 24 subjects, 17 subjects had serious lower extremity injuries. Body height and injury incidence showed a positive statistical correlation, meaning that body height may have an impact on the increased incidence of lower extremity injury in basketball players. Also, a positive statistical correlation was shown by the variables of injury incidence and body weight, as well as injury incidence and BMI. The variables prevention time and BMI showed a negative statistical correlation. Conclusion: The most common lower extremity injury has been shown to be ligament sprain / rupture. The research has shown that body height significantly affects the incidence of injury, so it is important to pay attention to injury prevention, especially in young basketball players who are in a phase of rapid growth. Body mass index and body weight showed a positive statistical correlation which means that increased body weight as well as BMI significantly affect the incidence of lower extremity injury in basketball players. Prevention time and BMI are negatively statistically related, but this area needs to be further examined on a larger sample of respondents.
