kind of dissappointed

So I have been playing a lot of bball last 2-3 weeks, therefore I have been squatting a lot less.  Today, when I was squatting, when I got up to 275 which is pretty heavy and it used to be not that heavy, during 1/4-1/2 squat, under my knee cap i started to feel this pain/discomfort, like my knee might give out, but the pain goes away at the bottom where i would pause, then when i go up the pain comes back at around 1/2 all the way to 1/4.  I have never really felt knee pain like this before, like there is some kind of irritation right under top of knee cap at the 1/4-1/2 position.
33yrs | 24in SVJ | >45% BF | 227LB | 5'9 | 7'5 reach | 400lb max squat paused | 5'8 wingspan | 26in RVJ

Coming back from 2 years of inactivity!

Goal: Maintain 385-405lb squat while cutting down to 165 LB

I've felt much worse before. There was a time where reaching that position my kneecap would just "fail" and basically my quad would shut down.

It healed on itself in a few days.
Current PR status:

All time squat: 165 kg/Old age squat: 130 kg
All time deadlift: 184 kg/Old age deadlift: 140 kg
All time bench: 85 kg/Old age bench: 70kgx5reps
All time hip thrust (same as old age hip thrust): 160kgx5reps
