Purpose: This study aimed to provide the descriptive statistics regarding the injury epidemiology of Korean professional basketball players. Methods: In this study, athlete exposures (AEs) and time exposures (TEs) were collected from the 38 basketball players (17 women) who participated in the 2019-2020 regular season. Injury rate (IR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Results: A total of 35 injuries were reported. The overall rate of injury was 5.65 per 1,000 AEs and 0.06 per 1,000 TEs. Approximately 65.7% of all the injuries occurred during the official games, with lower limb injuries accounting for about 57.1% of all the injuries. Ankle was the most frequently injured body area (25.7%) with a IR of 1.45 per 1,000 AEs. Sprain accounted for the largest portion with 54.3% overall, followed by strain, contusion and cartilage damage. The most common cause of injuries was contact with another athletes (37.2%), and the recurrence of past injuries (20.0%) also accounted for a high proportion. Conclusion: Korean professional basketball players experience a high rate of injuries occurring during official games. Ankle sprains were the most common ones. Contact-caused injuries accounted for the highest portion.
