I can give you my personal expereince. Due to not stretching prior to doing games I injured myslef and formed Heel Spur/Plantar Facitiuos. I think I spelled that correctly. Which in turn made my ankles very weak and sprained my ankles a number of times. So I got myself the orthotic and the velcro ankles braces sure enough those two items have saved my ankles and was able to build them up again. I used the velcro braces and I swear by them. Similiarly My daughter played HS ball and she used them as well.
In conclussion, That is my 2 cents.
