I dont have a story for you but I will give my opinion. Basketball is something I would consider to be intense cardio. Not sure what kind of cardio you were doing before but if you have added this to your regimen, I think making sure you are getting adequate calories in, will help you maintain your strength.
I once heard Jay Cutler say, "you can never over train if you eat enough...". But yeah BBall might be like a variation of HIIT, with sprinting up and down the court and kind of hanging around a bit till its time to move again ha ha!

It shouldn't effect your training at all. Now if you play your game then directly go train well that's a different story. Make sure you have time to recover and are getting proper nutrients in to support growth and it might even help since its a fair amount of explosive movement work.

Games are Thursday nights. My weight training is always first and was going to end workouts with 30-60 minutes of running. Was doing incline walking but its not enough. Off days will be pure cardio. Also going to start a 5x5 on just about all weights.
From my personal experience, anything more than about 15min of cardio is counterproductive to all out strength. It trashes your cns. I have also found weight gain and increased strength go together and loss of weight normally equalls loss of strength. This is just what I have concluded over the last 20yrs of training.
In my opinion, cardio has zero negative affect on strength unless you're in a caloric deficit. I did three 60 minute sessions per week on a very strict, very heavy DC regiment for years and the only affect was a very good respiratory/cardiovascular system and increased hunger to aid in pounding calories. As stated though, I wouldn't do an HIT session of cardio and then hit the weights, the glycogen loss from cardio will affect you, but otherwise do any cardio you can and like.

i wasnt going to be the first to trash this idea but since cb1 brought it up i will share with you how my body has worked. i did the military thing until i retired a few years ago in a very high paced and strenuous job. lots of running and other stuff of course. well needless to say i had to choose during my strength and bulking phase and during my cutting phase around show preps so i could pass tests and attended lots of courses. anyway, anyone that knows me knows that not many people eat more than i do. i am an eating machine and always try to stay in a positve nitrogen balance.
ok, in order for me to land around 18min 3 miles or less then i sacrifice strength and lots of it. you have to find a happy balance with what you are trying to achieve though. and i will tell you that with running man you tend to burn a ton more muscle than fat. at least that's how it is for most of us. look at distant runners and how soft but lean they are and then look at a sprinter. that's the best relation i can give you through personal experience

The good respiratory and cardiovascular is on point. When I do more cardio I feel more productive in weights. I feel like I rebound faster after each set.
Looks like ill personally test this theory out but people bodies are all different.
