Table 2. Eligibility criteria for study inclusion and exclusion Domain Inclusion criteria Exclusion criteria Population/ context Studies examining performance in regulation 5-on-5 basketball, including professional, semi-professional, collegiate, or youth settings. Studies that did not examine regulation 5-on-5 basketball, including small-sided games, drills, 3-on-3 formats, or other modified task formats. Data type Studies using court-referenced player and/or ball location data during play, including continuous tracking data or location-based event data. Studies relying solely on conventional statistics, play-by-play records without location information, or general event data without player or ball location information during play. Indicator requirement Studies deriving one or more spatial or spatiotemporal indicators from court-referenced player and/or ball location data. Studies reporting positional or movement data only descriptively, without deriving a spatial or spatiotemporal indicator for analysis. Tactical relevance Studies using these indicators to address a tactical, technical-tactical, or game-performance question, such as offensive organization, defensive behavior, player-player or team interactions, possession development, shot opportunities, or scoring-related outcomes. Studies in which the derived variables were used only for biomechanical, physiological, or workload-monitoring purposes and were not interpreted in relation to basketball performance or tactical behavior. Source type Original empirical studies, including methodological or modeling work only where applied to real regulation 5-on-5 basketball player and/or ball location data and producing interpretable findings relevant to match analysis. Studies based entirely on simulated data, conceptual examples, or algorithmic demonstrations without application to real match data. Non-original publication types and records that did not meet the peer-reviewed article requirement were also excluded.
