The purpose of this observational study was to describe the physical demands of basketball play at the Division I collegiate level using video-based time-motion analysis and introduce a time-efficient alternative method of quantifying demands. Eleven NCAA Division I basketball players (6M, 5F; 4 guards, 4 centers, 3 forwards) participated in the study. Video footage was collected from four practices (2 men's, 2 women's) and used to quantify the types and frequencies of player movements based on definitions from seminal work. A second and simpler method was also used to classify movement. A two-way ANOVA was used to assess significant differences in movement by team (men's, women's) and position (guard, forward, center).

Lower- and upper-body peak power (PWRpeak) and modified reactive strength index (RSI<sub>mod</sub>) were calculated from countermovement jump (CMJ) and plyometric push-up (PP) assessments. Energy expenditure was tracked over 3 days, while daily energy and macronutrient intake were recorded. EA was calculated and used to categorize athletes into LEA and non-LEA groups. Pearson correlation coefficients were used to examine relationships between EA, body composition, and performance metrics.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>85.7% of athletes (<i>n</i> = 12) exhibited LEA (20.98 ± 5.2 kcals/kg FFM), with non-LEA athletes (<i>n</i> = 2) marginally surpassing the <30 kcal/kg of fat-free mass (FFM) threshold (30.58 ± 0.2 kcals/kg FFM). The cohort (<i>n</i> = 14) consumed insufficient energy (30.5 ± 4.5 kcal/kg/day) and carbohydrates (3.7 ± 1.1 g/kg/day), resulting in LEA (22.36 ± 5.9 kcal/kg/FFM).
