Introduction: This study addresses the limited integration of motor performance factors and basketball shooting abilities within existing empirical and pedagogical research. Although numerous studies examine motor skills, physical conditioning, and cognitive components independently, the relationship between these variables and shooting performance remains fragmented.
Objective: This study aims to systematically identify, classify, and map scientific developments related to motoric determinants influencing basketball shooting skills across various age groups and training contexts.
Methodology: A systematic literature review combined with bibliometric analysis was conducted following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Bibliometric mapping covered publications from 1954 to 2025, while the systematic review included 15 peer-reviewed studies published between 2020 and 2025. Data were analyzed using RStudio to examine publication trends, keyword networks, thematic structures, and conceptual patterns related to motor performance factors influencing basketball shooting skills.
Results: The results show a significant growth in research output during the last decade, with dominant themes centered on motor skills, athletic performance, cognitive processes, and movement learning. Empirical findings consistently indicate that shooting performance is influenced by integrated motoric factors, including coordination, balance, strength, perceptual attention, and task-specific training design.
Conclusions: The study concludes that basketball shooting ability is shaped by a multidimensional interaction between physical, cognitive, and motor learning variables. From a practical perspective, these findings support the implementation of comprehensive, evidence-based training programs that integrate motor coordination exercises, perceptual–cognitive drills, and game-representative shooting tasks to enhance shooting accuracy and consistency among basketball players. Future research is recommended to employ ecological assessments, longitudinal designs, and technology-supported analysis to deepen understanding of motoric contributions to shooting performance.
