Introduction: In the quest to improve basketball players' performance during the season, the analysis of the training processes during the pre-season is crucial to successfully face the competition period. The aim of this research was to characterize the training tasks of a professional basketball team of the ACB category during the 2022/23 pre-season, as well as to analyze the relationship between the game situation with the pedagogical variables and External Load variables.
Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 107 tasks during 20 sessions of a Spanish first division professional basketball team. The dependent variables were the pedagogical variables and the external load. The independent variable was the Game Situation, understood as the organization of the players during the tasks. All variables were recorded using the Integral System for the Analysis of Training Tasks (SIATE) tool. A descriptive and inferential analysis was carried out to determine the relationships between the game situation with the pedagogical and external load variables.
Results: All indicators of the pedagogical and external load variables show a statistically significant association with the game situation (p<.05).
Conclusions: Therefore, the pedagogical and external load variables are conditioned by the game situation. Positioning itself as a variable of great relevance for the planning of the sessions, as its design facilitates the achievement of the proposed objectives and more effective training sessions.
