Abstract: Basketball is one of the most popular team-sports played on a shared court. It is important to shoot a basket based on a predominant strategy. In terms of individual movement along with the strategy, it is necessary for an offense player to understand how to shoot easily in an organized team-play. In this study, we introduce basic tactics and propose an environment for automatic extraction of scenes applying them from tracking data of players and a ball. We also analyze applied tactics, which are linked to shoot motions and their goals.
