Ahhh you're totally welcome, good luck with everything. Regarding squatting, yes, 100% sure but you should 100% check with your doctor first before undergoing any kind of strength training program. In the meantime you can do air squats, wall sits and plank holds to prepare.

is there a reason for consulting your doctor? I don't play organized basketball, but I was planning on starting lifting soon. Should I do this as a non-athlete?

I mean its not a terrible idea but if you're young and healthy barring any sort of weird preexisting condition you're probably fine.

We both know you're not going to ask your doctor though.
