**5. Conclusions**

Players wearing upper-body or full-body compression garmen<sup>t</sup> significantly improved basketball free-throw accuracy by 4.2% and 5.9%, respectively, but not on the intertrial consistency. full body kinematics data suggested that the improved performance could be attributed to the reduced ROM of head flexion and lateral bending of the trunk. Future studies investigating the relationship between shooting performance in basketball, reduced ROM and enhanced proprioception or stability are required.
