Dynamic balance is crucial for maintaining a stable posture during horizontal deceleration performance; however, whether lower-limb balance asymmetries would affect horizontal deceleration performance in young athletes is unclear. This study aimed to explore whether the lower-limb asymmetry measured from the Y-balance test affects horizontal deceleration performance at different distances in youth elite basketball players.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/lower-limb balancebasketball playerslimb asymmetryPresentation
