Abstract
This article analyses the Australian National Basketball League’s ‘Player Points System’ to ascertain the real impact of the system on the sport, clubs and athletes. It argues that the system works against the best interests of the sport and is an unreasonable restraint on the trade of the athletes. Ultimately, this article calls for the Player Points System to be abandoned and replaced by a more effective system such as the Restricted Free Agency labour market restraint model that is used in the Australian Football League and American National Basketball Association. It concludes that this system could more adequately promote the best interests of the National Basketball League and the players without constituting an unreasonable restraint of trade.
