How can I increase stamina for basketball?

I'm not trying to be cocky or what but in I raced with my friends who have most speed %26amp; stamina in running, cross country, biking %26amp; swimming and I got at worst the 3rd place. But when it comes to play basketball, defending an amature %26amp; making just one accurate jumpshot already tires me.

How can I increase stamina for basketball?
Do suicides.





Start at one baseline. Run as fast you can to the first free throw line, then back to original baseline. Run to the halfcourt line, then back. Run to the opposite free throw line, then back. Run to the opposite baseline, then back. That's 1 suicide for you. Repeat. Do several sets of those until you puke.
Reply:wind spirts aka horse of unlv's(a unlv is a running exercise made famous by the running rebel bbal team in the early90's. you run from baseline to free throw line and back then baseline to halfcourt line and back then free throw line on the other end and back and then the baseline on the other end and back and then five sprints back and forth from baseline to baseline in 1minute 32 seconds or less
Reply:For me what works is treadmill as fast as the treadmill can go, doing it everyday. For me 14km per hour for 2 kilometers.


Some bike then push ups and followed by light weights! Try ankle weights
Reply:must train your resistance alot. do alot of exercises that involve running and jumping moves.
