=== Team sports strategy === It has been suggested that in basketball, a team can be seen as a network of possibilities for a route to scoring a basket, with a different efficiency for each pathway, and a star player could reduce the overall efficiency of the team, analogous to a shortcut that is overused increasing the overall times for a journey through a road network. A proposed solution for maximum efficiency in scoring is for a star player to shoot about the same number of shots as teammates. However, this approach is not supported by hard statistical evidence, as noted in the original paper.<ref>{{Cite journal |bibcode = 2009arXiv0908.1801S |title = The price of anarchy in basketball |journal = Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports|volume = 6 |issue = 1 |last1 = Skinner|first1 = Brian|last2 = Gastner|first2 = Michael T|last3 = Jeong|first3 = Hawoong|year = 2009|arxiv = 0908.1801|doi = 10.2202/1559-0410.1217|citeseerx = 10.1.1.215.1658|s2cid = 119275142 }}</ref>
