Run, run, run. You want to be the guy still going circles around everyone in the last five minutes of the game, when everyone else is sucking wind.
Being young enough that your body is still developing, I wouldn’t advise that you strength train too much. And if you do, train for flexibility rather than raw power- more reps at lower settings.
And, of course, remember to stretch. The worst kind of injury for a basketball player is a pulled leg muscle, or a sprained ankle.
