1 week to be fully conditioned!!!

This may not be the right forum, but I will try anyways
I have a basketball tournament in one week and I need to get into great condition. I am an athlete, 14 years of competitive tennis, so intensity is not a factor.

I have been lifting heavy on an intense strength training program for about 4 weeks and put on 10lbs. I realize now for the time being i need to focus on conditioning like plyo, running fast miles, stretching, etc. i want to keep lifting in conjunction with my running and conditioning i just do not know what weight lifting routine i should undertake. I would like to keep as much muscle as possible and lose the some fat, most of all be able to sprint around forever.
Would appreciate any help!!

The tourney starts on sat morning, when should I stop lifting?
My stats 5'8" 155 23 years old

i would stop lifting 3-4 days prior and give you body a rest day the day before if not two days before(light cardio and stretching is okay)

i used to do this before tennis tourneys, i played at state and some national levels all through high school, and it worked well

Stop lifting and only do light cardio. Its too late now really, heavy training of any kind will probably only hinder your ability to compete. Only thing you can probably do is some light cardio involving legs. I would suggest jogging. Legs are about the only thing that are going to recover fast enough to give you any benefit at all.
