We have calculated best rebounding positions for rebounders with different wingspans after short-, medium-,
and long-range missed direct and bank shots using a dynamic model and random Gaussian probability density
functions based on measured release conditions. We also have analysed the relationship between player rebound
positions with high probability and likelihood ball rebound positions. The best player rebound regions usually are
different from the most likely ball rebound positions and include some very likely ball rebound positions. The
number of rebounders needed roughly depends on the corresponding shot distance: one player for short-range shots
and two or three for long-range shots. Players with long wingspans should be positioned close to the hoop for
rebounds because balls rebound near the hoop in many cases and they can collect rebounding balls in a large area.
These results may help players understand the most likely ball and player rebound positions. They establish the
best positions for rebounds and allow players to prepare for predicted rebounding balls at the most likely positions.
