The draw for the NBL in Australia/NZ isn’t just the money but the opportunity for young players to potentially get scouted for the NBA. The Next Stars program has played a significant role in this and it looks like another next star (Alex Sarr) will be a Top 5 pick in the upcoming draft.

probably because the competition isnt too good over there. i mean realistically the best competition outside of the US is the euroleague, but the risk of a talent not looking too good is high. so they choose a professional league that has decent players where a young talent can shine. still better preparation than college, dont get me wrong.

It is worth pointing out China has a far shorter season and Australia in reverse, so players will often go back to Europe or come to Europe. In case of NBL Keanu Pinder (Fuenlabrada) or Cleveland now at Maccabi. So Europe is a hot spot however China in years gone by has enabled players to rejoin the NBA and effectively get two salaries and the NBL has always been open to guys going and get 2-3 months more money in Europe. This is relevant as European sides are veet resistant to ever releasing players with buyouts, so someone like Brycr Cotton were he to want to go NBA has a far easier pathway playing down under. Having said all this thwse caveats only apply to a small handful of talent in China and Australia but it is the top talent so it is worth nothing. Equally NBL gave Bogut his last year a far larger salary and stake in Sydney if I recall correctly jusr as a fun fact albeit again a one off case

In other words: signing with teams such as Maccabi, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Efes Pilsen, Fener, Olympiacos or Panathiacos practically means you would have a chance to play in the Euroleague.

Really enjoy this channel, congratulations on 100k

I don't wonder why the PBA (Philippine Basketball Association) is not included, despite being the 2nd oldest league in the world. High-caliber imports are not too keen in getting paid in chump change compared to what they'll get from other leagues.

As always Great content. Been watching since the FIBA World Cup ❣❣❣

@basketnews you missed a big factor which are benefits. A lot of Euro leagues will pay for your housing, food, phone, rental car, clothes ect equalling hundreds of thousands worth of savings. Taxes also in other counties are different than the US and exchange rates are different.

Still the most pertinent channel to talk about basket in english. S/o from france

While the euroleague has the potential to provide the biggest amount of money, it's also the most difficult to not only be a star, but even a solid starter.

Knowing nothing about basketball outside the NBA (though Maccabi Anthony Parker is my favourite player, weirdly) my impression is that the most fun to watch players come from either Spain or Lithuania, Latvia. Something about the fans, their brand, how hype they get.. pay them.

NBA, Euroleague, EuroCup, BCL, FIba Europe Cup, ABA Liga, Puerto Rico, NBA G-League, NBL, CBA, B League, KBL, PBA, T1 League it does NOT matter for as long as you play Professionally in a place where it's "safe" and can provide for the needs of your family. That's a BIG WIN-WIN for me. Don't mind what the imbeciles.

very nice video. congrats

International players are taking up more and more of the NBA money these days. Leagues outside of the states have limitations on how many imports they can bring in. That is creating a tough spot for certain players who dont have a featuring role on an NBA team going forward.

Europe in time will more than solidify its position as 2nd best in the World in terms of financilal prospects. Given that Euroleague plans to expand into big markets like Paris and London and offer them a place in the near future, this will be important step. Money and recognition will grow even further. Competitions like Eurocup and BCL raise their levels too and attract interesting prospects. Not to mention that Dubai is still in the talks and a possible spot for this team will increase even more the role of Europe and Euroleague given that inflow of investments will increase even more. Add to that the deepening relationship between NBA and Euroleague, this will further position Eurolegue on the global scale. Plus everyone in time will associate even more Euroleague in US as a very legit competition as we see a successful season can secure you a roster spot. Something which I cant say for any league outside Euroleague. Europe is much further in its overall system than any other place in temrs of marketability,financial prospects and most importantly talent-wise.

Yes it`s got a lot of potential. Fujitsu and softbank ( richer than honda and nissan ) are major sponsors of japan`s basketball league. AEON malls/family mart and 7-eleven also own some teams if I`m not mistaken. Baseball and football leagues in japan earns billions of dollars a year so basketball there needs a lot of catching up. Most imports in japan nowadays were former MVPs of NBL australia. Former national coaches of australia and new zealand are coaching in japan also. Japan is now ranked #26 in the world making it the no. 1 team in asia ( excluding australia and new zealand ). Japanese teens are also getting taller and athletic so in about 5 years the japanese national team will probably have 10 players that have an average height of 6`8".

NBA salaries are always shown without taxes, and the taxation is pretty huge... So If you get 250mil the amount you really get yourself is closer to 100mil... That's why only those players who invest stay rich and why there is so many players who go broke and have to go to work.
