Practice and training for men’s and women’s basketball

The Shah Basketball Complex provides dedicated practice areas for both men’s and women’s basketball programs. The project features a regulation court that allows both programs to have interconnected practice areas with two practice courts and a total of 13 baskets. Before the complex opened, either the men’s or women’s team drove to practice at the LJVM Coliseum. Now, no team leaves campus to practice.

The Basketball Complex features a camera-based sports system providing live streaming, video and analytics to basketball athletes and coaches. The Noah Shooting System measures shots from anywhere on the court and gives instant feedback for shot arc and depth, allowing players to correct their shot in real time.

The space also includes 6,000 square feet of dedicated strength and conditioning and easy access to basketball sports medicine facilities and the cryotherapy chamber. Shah Basketball Complex connects to the Sutton Sports Performance Center and additional shared amenities, including the Christian McCreary Nutrition Center – a convenient space for student athletes to refuel where they train, with foods to help their brains and bodies recover.
