The aim of this study it was verify the association level between technical accuracy and tactical prominence
variables of basketball players from different competitive levels. For such analysis, technical accuracy it was
analysed using Team Sports Assessment Procedure and tactical prominence using social network analysis
metrics. Forty-two basketball players from four different competitive levels (U14, U16, U18 and amateurs with
more than 20 years old) it were observed during three official matches. Correlation tests revealed that %inDegree
showed a large positive correlation with efficiency index (r = 0.665; p = 0.001) and very large positive
correlation with volume of play (r = 0.844; p = 0.001) and performance score (r = 0.843; p = 0.001). The
%outDegree showed very large positive correlation with volume of play (r = 0.743; p = 0.001), efficiency index
(r = 0.710; p = 0.001) and performance score (r = 0.776; p = 0.001). This study allowed to identify that technical
accuracy has great levels of correlation with tactical prominence, mainly in the case of inDegree centrality.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
