Not recommended. : Rest and light activity are recommended after any surgery. Excessive bleeding may occur from excessive physical activity.

Extraction recommend: I would recommend that you do not play basketball the day of your extraction. It will be a critical time for the clot to form properly. You don't want the heart rate elevated. The following day should be ok. Depending on the complexity of the extraction you should always ask the oral surgeon this as every situation is different. The anesthetic used might also be a factor in his decision.
