I do not know why for basketball anyone would want to take an "on-field" physical test.
I have never heard of anyone giving such a test. But if we are making officials take a rules test, which the questions might have little to do with officiating, then why not give a test where it requires some physical activity? At least running is something that they will actually do during a game.
