Seems like France is becoming the new hotbed for international basketball talent.

Is becoming?
quote:

The National Basketball Association (NBA) today announced that a record-tying 125 international players from a record-tying 43 countries across six continents are on opening-night rosters for the 2024-25 season, including a record number of players from Australia (13), Germany (8) and Cameroon (5), and a record-tying 14 players from France and 17 from the continent of Africa.

We’ll see if they continue. There has been moments in time where Lithuania, Spain, and Argentina were exporting great players. Some
Of those sort of petered out as a core of great players aged out and a new country emerged. Seems like France might be able to maintain pumping out good players though.

141 million Africans speak French. It is the only continent where French is as common as English if not more so

According to the French themselves there is no such thing as ethnic French. Everyone in the empire is French

How far do you have to go back to find consecutive drafts where a white American was drafted before the first black American?

I wasn’t too impressed with LeBron and Durant having to carry USA so much in the 2024 Olympics. Not sure if Ant Man and Booker are those dudes in high pressure elimination games. See what they do in 2027 World Cup

So Americans of French descent are just nothing. Nothing of nothing. No one is anything. That’s the only logical conclusion

One time period it's Spain, France, Turkey,Lithuania,etc.
