Muscle or more: It is likely that this is from simple muscle fatigue. If you have a ligament tear causing this, you would feel the knee giving out when you twist or turn. If there is swelling in the knee, you may have a meniscus tear. If so, see a specialist.

Could be.: Could be your ACL, if you remember a specific injury to the knee. It could be a meniscus problem as well. See a sports medicine trained orthopedic knee surgeon for an accurate diagnosis.
