Aerobic Endurance is when the heart and lungs must provide oxygen to the muscles in order to be performed for long periods of time. In other words the amount of oxygen you body receives whilst playing the game.

You need this mainly to run around for the full four quarters of the game but you also need good muscular endurance to be able to keep up with your offender (if playing defense and to make strategic game play. Such as braking away from a defender to make a screen or being able to keep opposing players out of the key area.

So you won't get too tired to play before the game is over. It is a very physically demanding game.

In my opinion, you need strength to get rebounds, box out, and to be aggressive.
