Sleep Deprivation in NBA Players

90 mins? Most of the afternoon naps I do tend to be short - like 15-25 minutes, and that generally refreshes me enough to feel "restarted" for another few hours. I can get through the rest of the day pretty good on that. "Rest of the day" being doing "thinking work" for another few hours - I'm not trying to get another full day or work (or even socializing) after that.

That's the other kind of nap, where you don't actually sleep. That's fine too. The point is that a lot of people will sleep, but set their alarm to wake them up in the middle of their deep sleep and then be surprised that they are so groggy.

thanks. I guess it's usually felt like 'quick sleep' but that's my layman's view from the easy chair. :)
