Force plate technology has moved from research labs into everyday practice across the NBA, giving performance staff objective, athlete-specific data to guide training, monitor readiness, and manage return-to-play decisions. In this roundtable, three leading sports scientists share how their organizations put force plates to work on the ground. Joining the discussion are Nick Seme (Charlotte Hornets), Barnett Frank (Utah Jazz), and Brandon Pentheny (Los Angeles Lakers), practitioners at the centre of applying jump and movement diagnostics within elite basketball environments. They'll cover how force plate metrics inform daily decision-making, how data gets communicated to coaches and players, and lessons learned from integrating this technology into a demanding NBA schedule.
