Hello,

The excess fatigue with cut on head may be indicative of various clinical conditions as:
- Sequence of internal momentum changes in brain homeostasis via blowing impact of basketball
- Possible subdural hematoma development
- Low blood pressure concern
- Others

However, a thorough clinical examination by an expert consultant surgeon is best warranted for this regards. As one may need an MRI or non contrast CT brain as well.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
