abstract: NBA players are among the best athletes in the world. Providing medical care for this elite group is a rewarding privilege. It requires a multidisciplinary approach emphasizing a carefully planned prevention program. When injuries occur, team physicians must provide an immediate accurate diagnosis and trainers must treat early and frequently to insure a rapid and successful return to sports.
