Hard to say: Hard to say, especially if not febrile. I would be seen just to make sure things like your heart and blood pressure are ok. There have been instances over the years where apparently healthy athletes can have heart defects that can present during exercise. I know it would be unusual, but I would be seen as it is not a common complaint after playing basketball.
