Default other sports to improve your game?

Yeah, playing basketball itself is the best way to improve your game, no sht. But what I mean is, what other sport would you play to greater your attribrutes in the game? Like would you take track to get more use to running back and forth? football for strength and able to take a foul on ya?

Personally, I would take boxing, similar basic footwork and the workout is great.

Ballet for coordination, footwork, and grace

Boxing for hand speed and conditioning

Swimming for endurance

Soccer for endurance and agility

Every sport has something positive

This is kind of steering off the topic but football leg workouts are great for basketball . Just look at Labrons jumping ability

Sprinting - Self-explanatory

Ballet - Balance, co-ordination, everything.

Gymnastics- Co-ordination, execution, balance everything.

MMA- Get up of situations, mental/physical toughness.
